'The Latest from America', 1862.

'The Latest from America', 1862. 'Or, the New York Eye-Duster, to be taken Every Day.' President Lincoln turns Victory into Defeat by making a cocktail of Bunkum, Bosh and Brag and feeding it to the New York Press. He sends this potent concoction from Victory's goblet to Defeat's, and then back again. This cartoon reflects the view of Punch that Lincoln manipulated facts and figures, gains and losses, and retreats and advances, in his war with the Southern States. Those reading the daily newspapers could not then possibly know what was the truth of the situation, particularly given that if a cocktail might be too bitter to be palatable, it is always possible to add a little sugar. From Punch, or the London Charivari, July 26, 1862.
