Molti dei profughi e poi diversi liberali maltesi che s'identificavano con il movimento italiano e cercavano di intravedere l'ispirazione a un movimento analogo maltese, collaborarono anonimamente al giornale. Fino a un certo periodo ne fu responsabile soltanto Zauli-Sajani, che spesso analizzava la situazione politica dell'Italia e la vita sociale e culturale di Malta"; Oliver Friggieri, L'attivita di autori esuli italiani a Malta durante il Risorgimento

Ma appena arrivato, Costanzo, insieme con Salvatore Tornabene, fondo un foglio, II Corriere maltese, che, a causa degli attacchi scagliati contro il Re di Napoli e la sua famiglia, svelo in poco tempo lo scopo reale dei due scrittori (Fiorentini, 1966: 47). Costanzo, scrittore teatrale, si dedico attivamente al giornalismo e fondo un secondo giornale, L'Aristide. La sua convinzione rivoluzionaria e evidente dalla definizione che d di Lamennais: "Lamennais nella Schiavitu moderna, nel Libro del popolo e in altre sue opere, sempre difende i diritti dei meschini dispotizzati, e grida contro l'arbitrarieta de' tempi" (Costanzo, 1841: 4). Costanzo, anzitutto, cerco di propagare a Malta il sentimento ribelle di cui era animato quando nel 1841 pubblico il libro Ragioni che mi spinsero ad emigrare dal proprio paese.

The manner of language and approach of such papers was generally less inhibited, or more explicit - all too explicit at times - than was the case with either the Italian or English language Maltese papers. Socially, culturally and politically they were of the utmost importance and began to unravel a dimension of Maltese social life which had hitherto not come out into the open so much or at all."
