Antagonism between Clay and Jackson.

Symptoms of a locked jaw. Plain sewing done here' The caricature reflects the bitter antagonism between Kentucky senator Henry Clay and President Andrew Jackson, during the protracted battle over the future of the Bank of the United States from 1832 through 1836. The print may relate specifically to Clay's successful 1834 campaign to exclude from the Senate journal Jackson's statement of protest against Congressional censure of his earlier actions on the Bank. Clay is shown restraining a seated, uniformed Jackson and sewing up his mouth.
