Loco Foco witches laying a spell over the country

Print shows five witches flying on a single broom over a rural landscape. The witch at the front of the broom represents Andrew Jackson and is smoking a pipe with "Veto" smoke. The witch at the end of the broom represents Martin Van Buren. The witches in the center of the broom are probably Democratic supporters of Jackson and Van Buren. The print includes two spells being cast on the nation by the witches: "Harum Scarum, Cock alorum, with Mattie's Magic Broom trio lack-a-day, turn round three times & fly away" and "Hoblum, Goblum, we imps of hell Fixes o'er this hopeless land a spell. There let it be thro' years of woe, Descend ye mists, blind all below. All social bonds henceforth asunder, That we may promise, deceive and plunder." Below the witches a farmer says "Oh Lord ha mercy on us, there they be riding in the air and laying their Loco-foco spells as usual, vor these many long years. They have been bewitching us, not content with blasting our harvests, hurling upon us showers of taxation, stagnation and damnation, but they be about, I suppose to wind it all up with the spell of starvation." The print refers to issues in the 1836 presidential election.
