Amusement for John Bull & his cousin Paddy, or, the gambols of the American buffalo, in St. James's Street, British Cartoon Print

Print shows several ministers helping themselves to fishes and loaves that have spilled from a fishwife's basket which was upset by a rampaging "American Buffalo"; among those depicted are the Duke of Portland, Lord Cavendish, Lord North, Charles Fox, Lord Thurlow, Admiral Keppel, Lord Shelburne, and Thomas(?) Pitt. George III watches the shameless opportunism from a window in the background.
