The Publications, in the Sydney Gazette, are meant to Convey, in addition to the Notifications of Government itself, such useful information as the Editor can collect, so as to fill his Pages and render them at Once useful and interesting; And much care has been taken to prevent the Gazette from becoming the medium of Slander or illiberal attacks upon any Individual, within the Period of my Administration of this Government. The Series of Letters which appeared in the Gazettes, commencing with the Paper of the 5th Ulto ultimo and ending with that of the 2nd Instant, in which are included those of which you complain, certainly did not appear to me of that offensive Personal Nature, which you consider them, else I should have made the Editor answerable for their insertion— This, however, being matter of opinion, in which I may be Mistaken, I see only One Mode of redress to which you can resort, which is an Appeal to the Courts of Justice, And if the Letters should be there deemed “Criminal”, the Editor will for his own sake avow the Author— For other Motives than those of Justice, it does not appear reasonable to require a Surrender of the Author’s Name; And I would not feel Myself acting with that impartiality which my situation demands, and my own disposition dictates, were I to require an exposure in a Case where Criminality does not attach in my view of the Publications in question;— I am Sir, Your most obed[ien]t Ser[van]t (Signed) L.
