Union troops (Regular and Volunteer) are depicted as two dogs "Reg" and "Vol". A general, presumably Scott is holding their leashes. The words "When I want to catch a rat, I first stop up all of the holes. - W. Scott", "Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1861, by Grant and Pittman, in the Clerk's Office of the Southern District of Ohio." and "Sold by Mumford & Co., Cincinnati" all appear below the image.

Uncle Sam is holding a bottle labeled "Davis" as he stands over a snake labeled "Secession." The words "Entered according to Act of Congress in the year 1861 by J. E. Hayes in the Clerk's Office in the District Court of the District of Massachusetts." appear below the illustration.

A monkey with a Confederate flag (representing Jefferson Davis) and a fox with a Union flag (representing Winfield Scott) are playing cards at a table. As the caption indicates, Scott is taking Davis's last trump. To the left of the illustration (and obscured by the bend in the envelope) appears "D. Murphy's Son, Print. 65 &372 Pearl Street, N.Y."

The caption "There was a man in our town, And he was wonderous wise, He jumped into a bramble-bush, And scratched out both his eyes." appears below the image. The second image is of the same man, now swordless and ragged, jumping at a line of devils who have pitchforks pointed at him. The caption "Now when he saw his eyes were out, With all his might and main, He jumped into a another bush, And scratched them in again." appears below the image. The phrase "Eamuel C. Upham, 310 Chestnut Street".

A donkey labeled "Eastern Virginia" is leaning off the edge of a cliff. A man labeled "Western Virginia" is pulling on the donkey's tail trying to keep him from falling off the cliff. West Virginia stayed in the Union while the rest of Virginia went over to the Confederacy. West Virginia became a state of its own during the Civil War. The donkey is most likely a representation of the Southern Democrats who took Virginia out of the Union. The left of the image appears "Copyright secured by Brown & Ryan. New York."
