However, with the onset of the Trent Affair in the aftermath of the arrest, Wilkes's role fell under review. To placate the British amid attempts to stave off an a potential war, Secretary Seward, Lincoln, and others agreed to a disavowal of the Captain's actions. The arrested diplomats were also set free, being allowed to continue on to Europe.

Title A name given to the resource 'The Great Surrender' Subject The topic of the resource Northern Reaction to the End Results of the Trent Affair and the Return of the Confederate Diplomats Description An account of the resource This print combines caricature with photography to express the artist's view of the events surrounding the Trent Affair. Here, the figures of Confederate diplomats James Murray Mason and John Slidell stand aboard a ship travelling to England. There, British Foreign Minister Lord John Russell tears apart the Right of Search document that justified their capture by the Union in November, 1861, seized in a search of the British vessel, the RMS Trent. U.S. Secretary of State William Seward stands across the water from him. Seward faced criticism in England following the capture, amid growing tension over possible threats to Canada and pervieved violations of British neutrality. Finally, Confederate President Jefferson Davis disappointedly stands in the far right, having had hopes that this event would have ended up bringing Britain more solidly in support of the Southern cause.

This image from Harper's Weekly uses the figure of John Bull in a more negative light. Setting two of Britain's prominent Confederate-leaning officials - John Russell and John Roebuck - in the form of dogs against Columbia (Union), Bull is presented as a distraction in her fight against a serpent representing the Southern rebellion.

The illustration mocks British reliance on southern cotton while also targeting the Southern economic reliance on the crop. The South's decision to place an embargo on cotton exports and the effects of the Union's blockade together placed the prominence of 'King Cotton' on shaky ground, susceptible to collapse. Cotton diplomacy with britain and France was unable to win necessary support for the South. Over the course of the war, and afterwards Southern cotton encountered greater competition from the colonized regions of the Middle East and Asia.

Though republished in 1910, this document still expresses the grief that Lincoln's death caused outside the United States. Of note is that even though Lincoln was the subject of much caricature, satirization, and even criticism from publications such as Punch, the work of the president in matters of war and emancipation were not forgotten.

The top image shows the figure of Queen Victoria, representing the British Empire, and the military threat posed by British participation. Relations with Britain had deteriorated over the course of late 1861 over their neutrality and recognition of the Confederacy as a belligerent. While by 1862, the immediate tension had waned, animosity towards Britain lingered in the North, flaring up over later controversies with the British before the end of the war. The lower image displays the figures of Otto von Bismarck of Prussia and Napoleon III of France, two other powers vying for superiority over the other in Europe and beyond. France in particular would exploit the situation in America, the Union being distracted by its war with the Confederacy, to enact an invasion and occupation of Mexico. Establishing a puppet regime under Maximilian I, it would collapse due to revolts by Mexican republicans in conjuction with the winding down of the Civil War to the north.

Among them precursors to the popular icon of Uncle Sam, these figures also included 'Brother Jonathan.' Perceived American-belligerence during the Civil War leads to a change in the character, soon termed 'Naughty Jonathan' in the British press. In this image, Jonathan is shown as throwing a tantrum over Britain's refusal to support the Northern cause, as the motherly figure of Queen Victoria, also representing Britannia, sits as if ready to scold her unruly child.
