[13]"The above are all of the democratic party - good faithful adherents to the Embargo scheme, and the whole system of ruinous policy, which, with a flowing revenue of 10 millions a year, has left in our treasury only 'a beggarly account of empty boxes,' broken the spirit of the nation, and rendered us the sport and scorn of the Imperial Napoleon; - they had about 360 votes, and were chosen without opposition. The Federalists concluded to exert their 'restrictive energies' by withholding their votes on the occasion." Salem Gazette (Salem, MA). May 18, 1810.
