The opponents of parliamentary reform, including Wellington and Peel, attempt to pull down a column topped by Lord John Russell, a portrait of William IV on the plinth. The "Explanation of the engraving": This spirited sketch was originally designed by George Cruikshank. Esq., of Pentouville, London. The column in the centre is dedicated to the "King and Constitution," on the base of which is a portrait of his present Majesty, William IV. On the top of the columnn [sic] stands Lord John Russell, holding in his hand the Mirror of Truth. On the left of the pillar the Duke of Wellington, Sir R. Peel, and others are attempting with cords, axes, &c. to overturn the column; while on on [sic] the right, Lord Chancellor Brougham and Earl Grey stand in a calm and dignfied position, smiling at the futile attempts of the Boroughmongers to overturn the People's Rights. On the same side Lord Althorp is seen bearing a banner, representing the future prosperity of England, and the Attorney General (Sir Thomas Denman) is supporting the Flag of Victory

Satire on the Southampton parliamentary election of 1830. A large parade of people, including 'Tradesmen on the Grand Committee,' 'Inferior Tradesmen on the Kingland & Cossac Committee,' 'Publicans,' 'Brewers,' 'Itchen Ferrymen,' 'Fishwomen,' and 'Blidgeon Men employed from the Forest,' all march, holding flags above their hats. In the center on being carried in a grand chair, appears to be James Barlow Hoy (1794-1843), Irish-born military surgeon and politician who represented the Southampton constituency in the British parliament and also served as Deputy Lieutenant Sheriff of Southampton. The print appears to also refer to the corruptness of the Southampton parliamentary election of 1830; John Story Penleaze stood as a candidate but resigned before the end of the poll. He had been proposed by William Lankester, an upholsterer and prominent radical, who headed a newly formed 'Independent Committee', and seconded by Bryant. Although Hoy was proposed by Rose, he affirmed his commitment to the independent political line he had hitherto pursued, for which even Stanton gave him credit, and cited his endeavours to obtain improved status for Southampton as a port. The Members were returned unopposed and chaired without incident
