Eugène Henri Brisson (1835-1912) was a French statesman, Prime Minister of France for a period in 1885 until 1886 and again in 1898. He was a member of the extreme Left, he did however propose amnesty for the condemned but it was voted down. He was also a prominent figure in exposing the Panama scandals. In June of 1898 he formed a cabinet when the country was violently excited over the Dreyfus affair. The Dreyfus affair was a political scandal that divided France in the 1890s and the early 1900s. It involved the conviction for treason of Captain Alfred Dreyfus (1859-1935), a French artillery officer of Alsatian Jewish descent, who was sentenced to life for allegedly having communicated French military secrets to the German Embassy in Paris.

Also reported is a meeting of the New York Chamber of Commerce, in which sending a ship of grain to relieve Lancashire is discussed, necessitated by the Lancashire Cotton Famine and two poor European grain harvests.

Broadside, etching and letterpress. Sheet 450 x 285mm (17¾ x 11¼"). Trimmed into plate at top, creasing, surface soiling at bottom left.
A broadside presenting Tories attempting to overturn the 1837 Bristol election results as MacBeth's Three Witches around a cauldron, with papers marked 'Perjury', 'Lies', 'Slander' and 'More Perjury' When Liberal Francis Henry FitzHardinge Berkeley (1794-1870) was elected MP for Bristol, three petitioners (Bush Cookson & Payne, on behalf of the defeated Tory candidate William Fripp) accused him of extensive bribery and treating, as well as corruption, using his role as a trustee of the Anchor Society to obtain votes. A committee of the House of Commons was appointed to hear the case assembled in February, 1838, but after three days the petition was abandoned. Individual actions were brought against three other trustees and were all acquitted. In bringing the charges a woman was found guilty of perjury and the editor of the Bristol Journal was sued for libel and lost. Berkeley held his seat until his death in 1870.
