Daily Gazetteer
English newspaper (1735–1797)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Daily Gazetteer was an English newspaper which was published from 30 June 1735 until 1746.[1] The paper was printed for T. Cooper, at the Globe in Pater-Noster Row, London by W. Arnall et al.
In June 1740 the opposition essay-paper The Champion joked that postal “Clerks of the Road” would not let it travel by post “for fear, perhaps, it shall quarrel with the Gazetteer upon the Road.”[2]
The Gazetteer and New Daily Advertiser was printed by Charles Say until his death in 1775, after which it was printed by his widow, Mary Say.[3] Say published three papers but the Gazetteer was the only daily publication.[4] The London Gazette paper was then published as
