"Satire on the negotiations for the Peace of Paris. A lion and lioness (the King and Queen) look in alarm from the window of a coach (Great Britain) as it crashes against a large rock. Lord Bute, the driver, and Princess Augusta, who has been sitting beside him, fall headlong to the ground and the horses (bearing names connected with British actions in the Seven Years War: "Germany", "Guardeloup", "Pondechery", "America", "Martinico" and "Quebec") run off. Bute cries out, "De'el dam that Havanna Snuff its all most blinded me". The postilion, Henry Fox, lies on the ground having hit his head on a rock labelled "Newfound Land"; a speech balloon lettered "Snugg" emerges from his mouth. Behind him Pitt, holding a whip, grasps the leading horse's reins; the Marquis of Granby gallops up to assist him, together with William Beckford (who was shortly to become Lord Mayor of London) and the Duke of Newcastle. In the foreground is a conflict involving a number of journalists: Bute's supporters, Arthur Murphy and Tobias Smollett shoot their pistols at Pitt, and further to the right Charles Churchill, in clerical robes, fires a cannon labelled "North Briton" at them, causing another man to fall to the ground his arm resting on a copy of the Gazetteer (the fallen man must be either Charles Say, editor, or John Almon, contributor to the Gazetteer, an anti-Bute newspaper), with the headline, "A letter from Darlington" (a reference to Henry Vane, 2nd Earl of Darlington, a relation of Bute's by marriage). The British lion beside Churchill urinates on the Scottish thistle. Behind this group, the Duke of Cumberland runs forward anxiously mopping his bald head, having lost his wig. In the background are Lord Mansfield and the Earl of Loudon, the latter suggesting that they retreat (a reference to his failure to capture Louisbourg from the French in 1757). To the right a group of Scotsmen are driven off by two Englishmen with whips; another Scot sits on the ground scratching himself."--British Museum online catalogue

"Satire on George II's reluctance to accept an inter-party ("Broad-Bottom") government which included Tories suspected of Jacobite sympathies. The king, in the centre. leans across a table crying out, "Hounsfoot me no Stomach him!" as Thomas Pelham, Duke of Newcastle, and his brother Henry prepare to cram the Tory John Hinde Cotton into his mouth; Newcastle remarks, "His Bottom's dam'd Broad". Six other former opposition members hoping for office, including Lords Cobham (saying "I'll Protest no more") and Lyttelton ("You are right Cuz"),and William Pitt ("We drive a fine Trade"), lie on a shelf ready to be treated in the same way as Cotton, one of them saying, "Burn the Yellow List." The kings breeches are lowered and he is evacuating Lord Hobart. Others who have presumably emerged in the same manner leave the scene to left complaining that they have been turned out of office. They include Sir John Rushout saying, "Rusht-out with a Fizzle", and, kneeling in the foreground, Lord Winchelsea who has dropped his spectacles, complaining, "Bes[hi]t without a Job". In the foreground to right, stand two other gentlemen address the oppositiion members, one saying "Consider Your Oaths", and the other, holding a large key, "Remember The Healths"."--British Museum online catalogue
