[1]Elected.
[2]"This election has terminated as we have for some months expected. It was not whether the embargo was a wise measure, for that had but little influence; but the deluded people were taught to believe, that if Mr. Cameron was elected, we should again have direct taxes, gags laws and finally the establishment of a monarchy."
