The vision. Political hydrophobia, shewing the comfort of crowns, and how to obtain them. A crudely drawn but bitter attack on Andrew Jackson's veto of the re-charter of the Bank of the United States and his subsequent campaign to destroy the Bank. Jackson (right) is a king fiddling on his throne as the Capitol burns in the background. He is attended by Jack Downing, while Vice-President Martin Van Buren peeps out from behind a curtain. Downing: Jineral jest put a letel more Veto Rosin on your bow and you'ill give us a rale Nero-Doodle of a tune. That are fiddle jineral sound like your intarpitation of the Constitution. you can play ener most any tune you like on it. Jackson: D-mn the Constitution Major. It is where it ought to be, Under my Feet. Van Buren: Safety Fun. Before him is a strong chest labelled 30, 000, 000 Crowns Beside it kneel three men, the Reptiles that crawl through their own Slime to the Throne of Power. Beside them is a headstone inscribed Sacred to the Memory of Dame Freedom, born July 4, 1776 and departed this life Oct.1 1833 A.E sic... A crowd of Kitchen Scullions and Pat-riots with asses ears mill about in the background, cheering for Jackson. They represent Jackson's close circle of advisors, the so-called Kitchen Cabinet, and his lower-class and often unruly Irish immigrant (ergo Pat-riots) supporters. At lower left stands John Bull, who says, Ha-ha Brother Jonathan might as well hang up his fiddle, and not go bragging all over the world about his Freedom. A text below is a mock report of the murder of Dame Freedom by Andrew Veto and the Color Presses, (i.e. collar presses or pro-Jackson newspapers) including the Globe, Albany Argus, Richmond Enquirer, and others, and the robbery of the earnings of the Sons of Freedom..
