This cartoon represents the Treaty of Ghent. The bull is England, trying to create peace between all of them. The weaselly looking thing with the black fur and foxy face is supposed to be a black bear and represents Russia. The bear is trying to friend the lady. The Lady is holding an American Flag and therefore represents America. I believe it was made around 1813. The cartoonist, William Charles, was probably American (not only because he made the bull appear hideous and the bear look like a weasel) because the bull said, "The Wasps and Hornets have Stung me so hard I wish I had never disturbed their Nests." Thereby implying that England shouldn't have entered into war with America at all.
