19th Century Politically Charged Chamber Pot McNICOL POTTERY Co Liverpool Ohio



1800's chamber pot has been cold painted with a message of some sort of political discord but I am unsure about what. 

The motto is written in French and I have taken a picture of the translation. 
The surnames around the sides of the pot may be from the East Liverpool, Ohio region but I am unsure what it all means. Maybe something to do with the region's potteries?
The French translates to, "The one who burns his right behind sits on bells? 
I am hoping you know what it all means and offer this at auction for your consideration.
This semi granite pot has a painted over chip on the top rim, all over crazing, wear to the cold paint and typical manufacturing flaws.
The bold red, white, blue and black colors are very eye-catching. 
It's a real curiosity.
