Prefatory Note.
The present collection of Sir John Tenniel’s Cartoons is intended to be
a selection comprising the more memorable of those which have appeared
in “Punch” during the last 50 years. The first in the collection bears
the date of 1851, and the last is Sir John Tenniel’s final Cartoon in
January, 1901. Short explanatory notes have been provided, but as most
of them will, perhaps, be unnecessary to those to whom the Cartoons
themselves are familiar, they have been grouped together and combined
with the Table of Contents at the commencement of the volume, where
they can readily be referred to.
_March, 1901._

taken place between the German and Spanish Courts. This
aroused jealousy in France, where the Spanish King had

“Mirage” 59
At this time General Gordon at Khartoum was isolated. His
appeal for assistance and the opening of communications with
Khartoum by the Suakin-Berber route, was still delayed.
“Mrs. Micawber” 60
This Cartoon refers to Mr. Gladstone’s vacillating Egyptian

remained loyal to the Premier.
“Wait till the Clouds roll by” 61
Mr. Gladstone, burdened with political complications at home
and abroad, ill-health and impaired voice, was resting and
recruiting at Hawarden. The advice here tendered to him was

announcing that Russia and England would resume negotiations
for the delimitation of the Afghan frontier.

The Grand Young Man!! 68

Certain Socialists and Anarchists had taken advantage of the
prevailing poverty and lack of work to make inflammatory
appeals to the unemployed.
Salisbury Sisyphus 73

question—a task as formidable to him as to his

policy, seemed a standing menace to the peace of Europe.

Salisbury, the Home Rulers under Mr. Gladstone.
Germany, March 9, 1888 80

death of the Emperor William.
Consol-ation 81

conversion of the 3 per cent. Stocks into a new Stock
bearing 2-3/4 per cent. interest for fifteen years, and
thereafter a guaranteed 2-1/2 per cent. for 20 years.
What next? 82
The popularity of General Boulanger suggested the idea that
France was growing weary of a Republican “regime.”
“Panic amongst the Pigs!” 83
A Papal Rescript, condemning the Plan of Campaign and the
practice of Boycotting, caused some excitement among the
Irish Nationalists.
Plain English! 84
England was aggrieved by the action of Portugal in reference
to the Delagoa Railway, and by insults to the British flag
committed by the Portuguese.
From the Nile to the Neva 85

slighted at being left out of office.

Rule Bill, despite the lukewarm support of the Irish
Nationalists and the fierce opposition of the Ulster
Unionists.

The Ulster Defence Union had issued a Manifesto antagonistic
to the Home Rule scheme, and mass meetings were held at

contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate

Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
from people in all walks of life.
Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see

Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation
Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.
The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.
International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
volunteer support.
Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
edition.
Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
facility: www.gutenberg.org
This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
