Photographic reproduction of a caricature of Union General Ambrose Burnside. Shows the general as a baby Hercules declaring "Order 38. No nonsense allowed in my department" as he strongholds a clutch of "Copperhead" snakes, i.e. Peace Democrats and a serpent with the face of a man, probably prominent Ohio Peace Democrat, Clement Vallandingham.
