Charles Harpur's wide ranging note on the addition of a stanza to his poem A War Song for the Nineteenth Century discusses the meaning of republicanism and John Dunmore Lang's Australian League founded in 1850 'to encourage a sense of national identity, to resist any further convict transportation and to promote, by moral means exclusively, the entire freedom of the Australian colonies and their incorporation into one political federation.' (Baker, D. W. A., 'Lang, John Dunmore (1799-1878)', Australian Dictionary of Biography, National Centre of Biography, Australian National University, http://adb.anu.edu.au/biography/lang-john-dunmore-2326/text2953, accessed 7 November 2012.)
