To our Subscl-ibers.
We have always been very lenient with
our subscribers as regards the payment of
their subscriptions, but are now forced to
remind those who are in arrears, that we
are obliged to pay cash,—and exhorbitaut
prices too,—for everything used in our bus-
iness. This we cannot do, and trust our sub-
scribers, so “please walk up to the Captain’s
office and settle,” and read the GAZETTE
thereafter with a clear conscience.
W
GEN. MEADE’S ADVANCE.
We failed to receive our usual letter from
our Senior, but copy from Monday’s Tribune
his report of the doings of the Army of the
Potomac up to eleven o’clock, A. M., of Sat-
urdey:
"Of the cavalry, Gregg held the right,
Buford the centre, and Kilpatrick the
extreme leftduriug and after the crossing
of the Rapidan.
FRIDAY’S OPERATIONS.
General headquarters on Friday morn-'
ing were about three-quarters of a mile to
the rear of Robertson’s, on the pike, and
on an eminence overlooking the Robert-
son’s Tavern Ridge. Skirmisbing opened
quite briskly early in the forenoon, and
continued with considerable artillery
firing on our side along our entire line
up to one o’clock P. M., when it became
very severe on both sides, and continued
up to dark. .
A deserter who came into our lines
asserts that Lee held the line of the Rapi-
dau last night, but fell rapidly back this
(Friday) morning. to his present position
in our front, a distance of some 16 miles.
He also asserts that the Rebels had not
used any of their artillery in response to ~
our assaults, but were running it to the
rear for the purpose, as he supposed, of
getting a better position. His testimony
is confirmed by the number of prisoners
already sent in.
From the best information now at
hand, Gen. Meade has entirely deceived
the enemy as to the point or points Of
crossing. It is reported that Lee had 5
his entire army in battle-line all day yes-
terday, fronting Morton’s Ford, suppos-
ing we were to cross there. He thus
abandoned a long line of most formida-
able earthworks erected on the south and I
southwest bank of the river Had these
been held, it would have been next to
impossible for us to have crossed at the
Germanic Ford. The river bank rises in
a precipitous ascent for nearly 100 feet,
and these works not only commanded
the river crossings for miles on either
side, but a considerable range of country
on the northeastern bank.
The weather has remained compara—
tively mild and very pleasant, improving
the bad roads caused by the recent
rains. Everything has progressed quite
as propitiously as the most sanguine could
expect. '
At 4 P. M. the firing seems to slacken,
and opinions of oflicers are about equally
divided as to the probabilities and possi—
bilities of the morrow. Some see in all
the movements of the enemy an efi‘ort to-
escape a general engagement. Others are
as positive in the conviction that he
designs to hurl all. his forces on our.
centre. From our present line we have
a seeming advantage over the enemy, our
power to strike upon his rear, or hold the
Fredericksburg line, as it is called, giving
us the shorter line to his capital, is far
greater than any advantages be can pos—
sibly gain over us by any flank move—
ment on his part. »
SATURDAY‘S oruRArrONs.
At daybreak, Gen. Meade advanced"
to the front. Picket-firing soon com-
menced, and continued at intervals up to
noon. The enemy has fallen back some
two miles, and the conviction prevails
that he iS retreating. As it has been
raining bard since 8 A. M., it is not ex—
pected at headquarters that any general
engagement can be brought on today.
The details of losses in the Corps will
be forwarded by your other reporters.
Our line of battle at the present time ~
must extend about nine miles, in the form
of a triangle, and Ille whole army is ready I
and Impatient for a desperate and deci—
sive struggle. Large numbers of priso—
ners continue to come in this morning.”
The above communications were brought
to Washington by your messenger, who
duly arrived at ten o’clock tonight, after
a fatiguing ride by horse and rail of 36
hours, and adventures which, but for his
presence of mind, would have resulted in
the extension of his trip to Richmond in
advance of the army. The ride from
Headquarters to Rappahannock Station
was 25 miles long, through woods, by
bad roads infested with guerrillas. He
was almost in the midst of one company-
of Rebel cavalry before he saw the gray-
backs, who luckily did not spy him, and
escaped by a circuitous route through the
woods. At Brandy Station be was sur—
prised to see fires large enough for the
camp of a brigade. ‘ Dismounting. be
reconnnitred in front, and was not long in
discovering that Mosby was warming
himself and his men with abandoned rub—
bish of our property. At Rappahnnuock
Station, he was arrested as a Rebel spy
by the pickets, but his Tribune credentials
saved him from a protracted incarcera-
tion. When he left, at noon yesterday,
the army was advancing. He heard
heavy cannonading till night—fall. From
the direction of the sound, be inferred
that our centre and left were engaged.
Today the wind was adverse, but occa-
sionally the heavy boom of a cannon
‘. pursuit.
‘faculties get absorbed in solving them. A
l Wish it “t prove. true;
w
Gen. Ferry.
A Washington Correspondent of the New
York Tribune, states that it has been ascer-
tained that it was part of Lee’s plan in his
recent advance upon our forces to send a
corps up into Maryland for pillage‘and plun-
der, and also to “help out the copperheads”
in the pending elections. This, it was well
known, the rebel general had been urged to
do by “Northern Sympathisers.” In reference
to the matter, the writer says—“But this
nicely-prepared tea-party was effectually
spoiled by a formidable force sent out from
Gen. Couch’s department, under command
of Gen. 0. S. Ferry, which gained the gaps
and crossings in season to “head off" the
well-devised scheme. This part of the rebel
programme thus proved a failure with the
main movement; and it is generally con-
cluded that, so far as their Northern Oop-
perhead “friends" were to have been aided
in the Fall elections, that part of the pro-
gramme was the greatest failure of all.

TnANKserINe DAY.—-In addition to all
the blessings for which we had reason to re-
turn thanks to a merciful Providence, was
the beautiful weather on our National '

ful days of our “Indian Summer." The day
was very generally observed, and the servi-
ces at our churches well attended. Up-town

Mutilated Postage Currency.
The following rules established by Score-
tary Chase for the redemption of mutilated
postagecurrency, are copied from an official
circular:
“Fractional notes, commonly known as
Postal Currency, can be exchanged, if
not mutilated, with any Assistant Trea-
surer or Designated Depositary of the
United States, in sums not less than five
dollars. Defaced notes, if whole, are not
considered as mutilated; nor is an evi
dently accidental injury, not reducing
the note by more than one-tenth its
original size. regarded as a mutilation.
Mutilated fractional notes will be re-
deemed at the Treasury of the United
States, at the City of Washington, under
the following regulations, established as
necessary guards against fraud, and for
the protection of the community:
I. Fragments of a note will not be
redeemed unless it shall be clearly evi-
dent that they constitute oue-half or
more of one original note; in which case,
notes, however mutilated, will be. re-
deemed in proportion to the whole note,
reckoning by fifths.
II. Mutilations less than one-tenth will
be disregarded, unless fraudulent; but
any mutilation which destroys more than
one-tenth the original note, will reduce
the redemption value of the note by one-
fifth its face value.
III. Mutilated notes presented for re-
demption, must be in sums not less than
three dollars Of the original full face
value.”

WWe would call attention to the adver-
isement of the “ Conn ecticut War Record."
published at New Haven, and edited by Rev.

Brown has been elected United States
Senator from the State of Missouri. He
is a man of decided ability, was one of
the earliest and "most zealous Republicans
in the State, and is equally zealous in his
advocacy of immediate emancipation.
His election marks an era in the political
history not only of Missouri, but of the
whole country. When Slave States begin
to elect Abolitionists to the Senate of the
United States, we-may fairly infer that
the world is making progress. We trust,
the example of Missouri will be imitated.

FLAG PRESENTATION 1'0 A COLoarD Ruc-
nInNT..-—Tbe 14th Rhode Island (colored)
regiment, numbering 1,150 men, was prei
sented with a flag, on Thursday, by the
Governor Some two or three hundred
of the lending citizens of the State were
present, and the whole affair was quite an
imposing one. Among the speakers was
the Rt. Rev. Bishop Clark, who congrat-
ulated the soldiers of the Corps d’Afrique
on the position which they held that day
“It is adistinguished honor to belong to
such a regiment as this, the 14th in the
order of place which has been furnished
by Rhode Island to the war, but inferior
to none in the standard of physical soud-
.—
'uess and ability. You stand in these
ranks, not because you have beendrnfted
by the civil authority, but as volunteers,
as men who have willingly oll'ered them-
selves to save and redeem their country.
For hereafter this will be your country,
as well as ours and your right to all Its
privileges and immunities will be amply
, vindicated.
“The Bishop pleasantly mentioned that
‘Once in a prayer meeting held by certain
“slaves at the South, one of the speakers
reminded his brethren that for several
weeks they had neglected in their servi-
ces to remember the white element in so-
ciety. It may be that the white element
is comparaitvely losing caste and the col-
ored element coming to the surface. Per-
haps we have had our turn long enough,
and you have only to show yourselves
competent to compete with others, in or-
der to secure your position as true Amer-
ican citizens. You have enlisted in a
great and holv cause It is not merely
the Union of our country that is at stake
it is not merely the question of slavery or
freedom that you are to determine; you
now go forth to fight the great battle of
civilization, to settle the question whether
the human race, yours and ours, on this
continent shall go backward or forward.
We gladly welcome your aid in this
mighty struggle, and may God grant
that when you return to us, with that
beautiful banner, today so fresh and fair,
torn and riddled by hostile shot, and
‘ crimsoned with the blood of its brave do.

The trOOps'empioycd were the divi-
sions of Generttl's',Wood and Sheridan, ol'
the Fourth Army Corps, with the immo-
dinte direction-of Gen. Granger.
The object- of’the movement was not
only to ascertain itbe strength of the cue-
my, but to occupy two bold knolls in
front of our lefz‘,ibalf way between our
lines and Missionary Ridge.
The principal attack was .made by
General Hazen’s brigade, commanded by
that General, and supported on the left
by General -W~illich’s brigade, and on
the right by tbe:-wh_olc division of Gen.
Sheridan. ~ '
The _field was distinctly y'sibler from
Fort Wood, in front of which General
Hozen’s line of’b‘nttle was formed, and us
the whole .army was under arms, with
General Howard’s corps formed in a
solid column, as a reserve to the attack-
ing forCe, the spectacle was magnificent
The field being commanded by the
heavy guns of the fort, only one field
battery was taken into action This Was
planted on an elevated knoll, in the cen-
tre of which Gen. Sher'nlau’s line of bat-
tle was formed before the order to ad-
venue was given.
At last, everything being ready, Gen.
Granger gave the order to advance, and
Gen. Hazen and Gen. Willich pushed
out simultaneously. ’
The first shot was fired at two o’clock
in the afternoon, and in five minutes the
lines of Gen. Hazen were hotlv engaged,
while the artillery of Fort Wood and
General Thomas were 'opeued upon the
rebel rifle pits and the camps behind the
line of fighting. '
The practice of our gunners was splen-
did, the Camp and'batteries of the enemy
being about a mile and three-quarters
distant; but our fire elicited no reply,
and it Was soon evident the rebels bad
no heavy artillery in that part of their
entrenchments, at least.
Our troops rapidly advancing as if on
parade, occupied the knolls, upon which
they were. directed, at twenty minutes
past two o’clock.
Ten minutes later Gen. Willich, driv-
ing across an open field, carried the rifle
s pits in his front, whose occupants fled as
they fired their last volley, and General
Sheridan, moving through the forest that
stretched before him, drove in the enemy’s
pickets, and halted his advance in obedi
race to orders on reaching the rifle pits,
where the rebel force was awaiting for
his attack.
No such attack was made, however,
the design being to recover the heights
works. , ,
We have taken about two hundred
prisoners, and have gained a position of
grelft importance.
CIIATIANOOCA, Nov. 25,—We are com-
pletely victorious The enemy is totally
routed and driven from every position.
Our loss is small; the enemy’s loss is
heavy in prisoners. '
Finding. Hooker so successful in his
movement against Lookout Mountain,
the enemy evacuated the position during
the night Hooker took possession early
this morning. The enemy moved south
and got on Missionary Ridge.
Gen. Sherman being all prepared,
began an assault at 8 A. M. to-day upon
‘the strong position of the enemy at the
He had
, the day before taken a hill near the posi-
tion of the enemy; but, commanded by
their artillery. he had to descend into a
valley, and then made another assault to
the position held by the enemy.
Two unsuccessful assaults were m'adc
by Sherman, but with the co-operation
of the centre be ultimately gained the
position, and completed the victory.
The brigade of Gen. Carz’s, with a
portion of Gen. Lightew’s brigade, com-
posed tho storming party in the first as-
sault. They. were repulsed with quite
heavy loss, after an attack persisted in
for an hour, bat being reinforced were
enabled to hold a part of the bill in this
attack. Gen. Carz was wounded quite
severely in the thigh
A second assault was made at half-past
one, in which Mathias’, Loomis’, and
Raul’s brigades were engaged. The force
reached within twenty yards of the sum-
mit of the bill and the works of the
enemy, when they were flanked and
broke, retiring to the reserves. In this
assault, Gen. Mathias was wounded, and
Col. Putnam, 93d Ohio, killed.
Their persistent efforts compelled the
enemy to mess heavy ongbis right, in
order to hold the position of so much im-
portance to him.
About three o'clock, General Grant
started two columns against the week
end of the centre, and in an hour’s des-
perate fighting, succeeded in breaking
the centre and gaining possession of the
ridge on which the enemy was posted _
The ‘I'main lines was driven northward,
towards ‘Sliormau, who opened on them.
and they were forced to break and seek
safety in disordered flight down the
western slope of the ridge, and across the
western slope of the Chickamauga.
Prisoners say that Bragg was on the,
Ridge just befi is they were taken.
The successful storming parties con-
sisted .of Wood's and Baird’s division on
the left centre, and Johnson’s and Sher-
man’s On the right centre _
Some of our wounded were left in the
hands of the enemy after Gen. Sherman's
unsuccessful assault, but‘were ultimately
recovered. '
CuArrAnoocA, Nov. 25—10 P. M.—
The captured artillery is reported about
forty pieces.~ Gen. Hooker captured five
boxes of new muskets on Lookout Monu-
lain.
We are in entire possession of the field.
We lam ron‘rol over the railway and
river to Bridgeport. Two bouts came
through this morning.
Our loss will not amount to more than
300 killed and 250 wounded in the three
days’ operations. _
The success has been most brilliant.
.. WASHINGTON, Nov 26, 1863.
The reports from Chattanooga received
at the War Department, represent that
3,000 prisoners Were captured from the
rebels yesterday, with 52 cannon, 5,000
stand of small arms, and 10 flags.
The rebel forces are utterly routed to-
day nnd in full retreat towards Dalton,
Georgia. They are burning the bridges
after them to retard pursuit. They are
also burning their depots and stores, and
abandoning or destroying everything that
will embarrass their flight.
The following have been received at
headquarters:
“CHA'ITANOOCA, Nov. 2.5—? PM.

“Although the battle lasted from early

WASHINGTON, Nov. 27—12z30 P. M.—
Advices received this morning by the
War Department, from General Grant’s
army, state the pursuit of the rebels was
continued yesterday by Hooker and
Thomas. ‘Bragg attempted to make a
stand at Cbickamauga Station, but was
againlorced back. We have captured
60 cannon in all and about 2000 more
prisoners, making at least 7000 in total.
The rebels were in full retreat on Dul-
ton, leaving caissous and wagons in their
haste. Several cannon and numerous
stragglers were also picked up.
There is official authority for asserting
that in the several battles just fought be-
fore Chattanooga, we have captured
7000 prisoners at least
CnArrANOOCA, Nov. fill—This glorious
army is already again on the march in
pursuit of the flying and panic-stricken
enemy, though we are hardly yet in at
the first gray of the dawn. Yesterday’s
work was even more complete than that
of the day before. Everywhere our ad-
mirable troops went ahead, eyeu at the
“double quick.” They captured bodies
of the enemy in hundreds if not in thou-
sands. Wherever we reach portions of
the rebel army in arms, they instantly
throw them down and scatter like fright-
ened sheep, leaving all their stvagglers
near by, their large number of discon-
tented whe desire to be taken in, and
their wounded, in our hands They also
in the same manner abandon their artil-
lery, ammunition and transportation
wagons, cuissous, kuupsucks, and every-
thing that cau possibly impede their
flight. In this way sufficiently more of
their artillery fell into ourbauds yester—
day to swell the total number of pieces
taken up to sixty. Before our troops
stopped for rest for the night their pro—
gress was everywhere lighted by the
large fires from the enemy’s stores, to all
descriptions of which they applied the
torch to prevent them from falling into
our hands. They also burned all the
bridges they had time to fire before we
were upon them, in the hope of thus de—
laying the impetuosity of the pursuit.
What is now left of Bragg’s boasted
army is but a panic-stricken mob, running
like a herd of frightened buffaloes, and
apparently perfectly incapable of making
any further resistance.
CuArrANOOGA, Nov. 27,—The situation
tonight is highly Satisfactory. General
Hooker, Palmer and Sherman’s com—
mands are nearly ten miles beyond Chick—
amauga Creek in pursuit of the crumbling
army of Bragg, who is making every
effort to escape our advance near Dalton.
In a sharp light this morning General
Palmer’s advance tbok four guns and
three hundred prisoners. Gen. Sherman
is reported to have advanced from Lyne
Station on our left to day and cut 06'
2000 rebels. The road along which
Bragg is retreating is lined with cais—
sons, wagons, commissary and medical
stores.
Col. Long’s cumin-y command returned
from a raid to the East Tennessee River
to-nigbt. They destroyed the road fifteen
miles above and below Cleveland, burned
a rebel foundry at Cleveland, where
large quantities of munitions of war are
stored, destroyed 500 wagons loaded
with baggage, and captured 80 prisoners
Col. Long was attacked subsequently by
a superior force of infantry, cavalry and
artillery, but succeeded in bringing his
prisoners 06'.
Our loss in the three days’ fight will
not exceed 3,000. .
There was no fighting by Grant’s army
on Friday Bragg’s forces were concen-
trating near Dalton and below there, in-
tending to make a stand. An order from
Bragg On the 26th recalled Longstreet
from before Knoxville, and he is now try-
ing to get to Dalton by a roundabout
road. The situation all tbe'way from
Knoxville to Bridgeport is all that our
side can desire. News from Burnside is
to the 25th. The north part of Knoxville
had been burned. Gen. Burnside was
cheerful and confident.
The report of Quartermaster General
Meigs of the late battle near Chattanooga
shows thnfit was a .surprisemprung up-
on tbe enqmy. our trOOps moving upon
Missionary Ridge such perfect order that
the Rebels bud no suspicion of an- attack,
but regarded the movement as a dress pn-
rade.
by Gen. Meigs, who declares that so- well
directed and so well ordered a battle has
not taken place during the war. ’

occasion of the death of Sergt. EDWIN R.
Snrrn, of said Company, the following
resolutions were passed:
Since it has pleased Almighty God to
remove from us by death our worthy
friend and fellow soldier, we, the under-
signed, members of his Company, do
make this tribute to his memory:
Resolved, That while we acknowledge
the hand of God in all things, we can but
mourn the loss of our brother in arms,
who has suffered the hardships and pri-
vations which none but a soldier can
know. His patriotism and loyalty nerved
him to deeds of during and danger;
and although he did not fall a victim to
the deadly aim of the enemy, he has
fallen a victim to men’s last enemy—
Death. ~
Resolved, That we, the members of his
Company, do join with his relations and
friends in mourning the loss of him who
has gone to the land of rest to join those
of his comrades who have gone before.
Resolved, That a copy of these resolu-
tions be sent to his bereaved mother, and
a copy of the same to the Norwalk Ga-
zette for publication.

Its'efi'ects. We are quite sure that families
“910s. in will be glad that we have called their
attention to it, for the price of coffee is now
30 high that this article, being both cheap
and good must be very popular.
