AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The writer for the Australian is enraged at the publication in Tasmania of a newspaper using the name of the Hobart Town Gazette. (Andrew Bent's Hobart Town Gazette, and Van Diemen's Land Advertiser was still being published at the time.)

The Australian says: 'The appropriation of the Title of the Hobart Town Gazette to another Journal can be viewed in no other light than the forcibly taking possession of goods and chattels, without, as far as we can perceive, the most remote right so to do.'
