Drawing The Stumps, 1862. Artist: John Tenniel

Drawing The Stumps, 1862. Cobden to Dizzy. Carries Out His Bat? Of Course He Does! Your Underhand Bowling ll Never Get Him Out! I ll Show You How to Do It Next Innings. Mr Speaker draws the stumps after another Session of Parliament and Palmerston is not out yet again. Richard Cobden was a passionate supporter of the concept of free trade and disarmament. Although he was instrumental in preserving some sort of relationship between the administrations of Lincoln and Palmerston during the Civil War, here he is shown telling Disraeli, the unsuccessful bowler, that underarm - or underhand - bowling would not get Palmerston out. From Punch, or the London Charivari, August 16, 1862

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Drawing The Stumps, 1862" we are transported back to the vibrant political landscape of 19th century Britain. Created by renowned artist John Tenniel, this cartoon captures a momentous occasion after another session of Parliament. As Mr. Speaker draws the stumps, symbolizing the end of yet another parliamentary session, all eyes are on Lord Palmerston. Despite his opponents' best efforts, he remains undefeated and not out once again. Richard Cobden, a fervent advocate for free trade and disarmament, takes center stage in this scene as he imparts his wisdom to Benjamin Disraeli. Cobden confidently asserts that underarm bowling will not be enough to dismiss Palmerston from power. With a wave of his bat and an air of authority, he promises to show Disraeli how it should be done next innings. The image is rich with symbolism: the cricket match represents the political arena where strategies are employed; the wig-clad politicians signify their status as aristocrats; and the tent serves as a backdrop for these intense battles of wit and influence. This historical snapshot offers us a glimpse into an era when politics was both fierce competition and grand theater. It reminds us that even in times long past, leaders were driven by ambition and passion just like those who govern today.
