Edward Smith Hall informs readers of the Sydney Monitor that the paper will be adding a Saturday Supplement from 26 December 1835. The supplement will include the Government Gazette and extracts from the English newspapers. Hall reiterates his stance on emigrants and emancipists - he will not distinguish between men on these grounds, but will always separate the vicious from the moral.
Hall gives his opinion on what he considers to be the inflated claims of the Colonist regarding newspaper circulation in the colony. Hall says: 'The circulation of The Sydney Monitor among paying Subscribers, is next to The Sydney Herald. The account of Newspapers published in The Colonist as passing through the Post Office, is no criterion of the circulation up the country of The Sydney Monitor, because; in order to promote their more early delivery, a great portion of them go by Coach, and never pass through the Post Office.'
