Tae GOVERNoTeS NESSAGE and important War News,
have crowded oat several Communications and other mat
ters that mare intended for insertion in this week's %vapor.
TO DELINQUENTS
This is the last number of the Gazette that we
shall be able to Bend to subscribers in arrest s,
who have not made return to the bills forwarded
in their. papers. We shall regret to strike the
names of any of them from our list, but it has
become a stern business necessity that we dare
not disregard. So long as we are compelled to
pay, in cash, the present exorbitant price for pa
per, and the greatly enhanced prices for all
printing materials, it is impossible for ns to print
the Gazette and supply it on any other terms
than cash in advance. We do not cut off a single
subscriber, because we doubt his disposition or
ability to pay us, or because we are unwilling to
give him the customary credit. But, we are
driven to this course, simply because we cannot
continue the publication of our paper in Bey
other way than on the cash system. Delinquents
who may be disposed to complain against us, can
easily satisfy themselves that a business requir
ing a daily outlay in cash for all that is needed
to carry it on, cannot be kept up by giving out
what it produces on credit. This is just the long
and the short of it. While paper continues at
2fl cts. a pound, and must be bought for cash
exclusively, and while, at that rate, every sheet
we print is a loss to us, we are compelled to ask
cash for the Gazette.
All delinquent subscribers, who do not wish
to have their papers stopped, can avoid it by
remitting the amount of their bills between this
and next Friday. Those who then remain in
arrears, *ill positively be stricken off our list.
UNITED STATES SENATOR
Tuesday next, is the time fixed by law for the
election of a United States Senator by the Legis
lature of Pennsylvania. The Democratic Sena
tore and Representatives held a preliminary
caucus on Wednesday evening, of which Senator
CLIMBS Was Chairman, and appointed. ikloodilt
evening next at half past 8 o'clock as the time
for holding a formal caucus, to place in nomina
tion a candidate for U. S. Senator on the Demo
cratic side. The attendance was full, and while
individual preferences were entertained as to a
choice among the several distinguished gentlemen
who are named as candidates, there was bat one
opinion as to the duty and necessity of casting
a united vote for the nominee of the caucus,
whoever be map be, and thus Meeting the
wishes of the people, as expressed at the late
State election, by the choice of a Democrat to
succeed David Wilmot, who now misrepresents
the sentiments of the people of Pennsylvania in
the Senate of the United States. From all that
we coal.' gatnrr, during a deft, visit to Harris
burg this week, no fear is felt that aay Demo
cratic member of the Legislature will be so base
as to betray his trust ; but, on the contrary, a
confident hope prevails that a Democratic Sena
tor will be elected_
To-day a large and influential delegation of
the Democracy of Berks will visit llarrisburg,
with the intention of remaining there until the
Senatorial contest is over, to testify, by their
presence, primarily to the deep interest they feel
in the election of a Democrat, and further, to
the warm desire they entertain for the norraina-,
Lion of the choice of Berks county, the Hon. J.
GLANCY Joss& Mr. Jones is presented as a
candidate for the Senate by the unanimous voice
of the Democrats of this county ; and while they
have done, and will do, nothing to disparage the
claims or qualifications of either of the gentle
men who have been prominently named for the
same position, they feel that his experience in
public life, and abilities as a statesman, pecu
liarly fit him for that responsible office, at this
time, perhaps, more than any other, when true
and tried public men, with broad national prin
ciples, are needed at Washington ; and they
would regard his nomination by the - Democratic
canons sea high compliment to their noble old
county, thaishas stood so well the brunt of many
a hard—contested political battle. We are able to
say, from personal observation, that the feeling
at Harrisburg is decidedly friendly to Berke
county, and should the Mends of the other Pro
minent candidates fail to unite, there is no
county in the State that they would sooner come
to for a candidate, than Berks.
CAPTURE OF MURFREESBORO.-
We present to-day the official announcement
of the triumph of General Rosecrans in the cap—
ture of Murfreesboro, and the retreat of the
whole rebel army. It appears from the dispatches
that the whole of last week was one continu
ous battle, with brief intervals ftir rest and-re—
cuperation, and that, despite the numbers and
ferocity of the rebels, and the great ability of
their Generals, our brave army never relaxed
their efforts, but fought on, recovering all the
ground they lost, and finally achieving a signal
victory by the force of that indomitable courage
which peculiarly characterizes the soldiers of the
republic. This great struggle reflects imperish—
able lustre upon our arms, and will nerve the
hearts of our soldiers everywhere to new exer—
tions.
MOBTOOmERT COVairr.—The Democratic Con
vention of Montgomery county met on Thursday
and elected Dr. J. A. Martin, Charles Hurst,
Henry McMillen and J. S. Yost, delegates to the
State Convention. The delegates were instructed
to divide their votes between the two candidates
for Governor from that county—the Hon. Jacob
Fry, Jr., and William H. Witte, and if, at any
stage of the balloting, the four votes will nomi
nate Mr. Fry, the , will vote- for him, and eke

REPORTED DEATH OF Ex GOVERNOR PACKER.—
A report reached Harrisburg on Wednesday
night, -that the Hon. WILLLAR F. PACKER, ex-
Governor of Pennsylvania, died very suddenly
that morning at Williamsport. As we have not
heard any confirmation of the report, we are led
Jo hope that it was unfounded.
THE MESSAGE.
Governor etram's Message is a short, concise
business-like paper. It consists principally of
a statement of the financial and military opera
tions of the Commonwealth during the past year,
and upon both points makes a satisfactory ex
hibit. The credit of the State has been honor
ably maintained, without increasing our burden
of debt, or imposing additional taxes on the
people; and the alacrity with which they have
furnished their proportion of soldiers for the
military service of the Union, and the cheerful
ness with which they have assumed and borne
all the responsibilities of the war, prove the
strength of our military resources, and reflect
the highest credit upon the patriotism of our
beloved old Commonwealth.
The recommendations of the Message are few,
and relate exclusively to matters of a practical
nature, about which there can be little, if any,
difference of opinion. What the Governor says
against the charter of any new Banks, and the
practice that prevails in some of our manufac
turing districts of paying wages in store-orders,
is timely and true, and deserves - the early atten
tion of the Legislature. His recommendation,
also, in regard to the care of our sick and wound
ed soldiers, deserves prompt notice and action,
as a simple measure of juslioe and humanity to
those who have periled everything for the sake
of our common country.
The Governor's reference to national affairs is
very general and in few words. His silence on
the sul:ject of the radical measures into which
the Administration has drifted, in direct violation
of the President's repeated professions of a de
termination to confine his authority strictly with
in constitutional plaits, and which has at last
culminated in the issue of the Proclamation of
Abolition—the Governor's studied avoidance of
all allusion to these subjects, is significant, and
proves that if he is not bold enough to condemn,
he is at least unprepared to endorse them. He
knows full well that the sentiment of conserva
tive Pennsylvania, is decidedly opposed to the
radical course which the Administration has
lately inaugurated. This was shown in the result
of the last election, and Governor Commons too
shrewd a politician to turn his face directly
against an overwhelming popular opinion. We
can commend the Message for what it ilea net
say ; and have no particular fault to find with
what it does say.

Loss OF THR MONITOR.—An official dispatch
from Admiral Lee says that the Monitor found
ered at sea on Tuesday night, 20th ult., when a
short distance south of Cape Hatteras. The
weather was squally, and the vessel sprung a
leak and went down. The eLearner Rhode Island
saved a number of her crew, but several officers
and men are missing, and supposed to be drown•
ed.
As the pioneer of a revolution in naval archi
tecture, the Monitor had won for herself a place
on the deathless page of history, and will long
be remembered with pride by Americans as a
signal Instance of one enterprise and original in
genuity. Ent the Monitor was never a good
sea-going vessel, having been designed for use
in the rivers and bays of the coast. On her first
voyage from New York to the napes of the Ches•
apeake, she came near being Met from the sea
extinguishing her fires, and preventing the ven
tilation of the vessel. This is the principal de
fect in these peculiar craft, and although it is
said to have been remedied in the new ones, the
truth remains to be tested by the only sure
proof—experience.
Tax Soon or ViCKsEVOO,—The report which
roached us a few days ego, from a rebel source,
of the capture of Vicksburg by General Sherman,
proves to have been incorrect. The latest and
most authentic news is unfavorable. After hard
fighting, during which the rebels were largely
re-inforeed, Gen. Sherman was obliged to fall
back, and if there is any truth io an ()facia dis—

peared in the Richmond papers of Monday last,

ed. A review of the field of battle since the
'evacuation shows that the enemy were much more
formidably posted than we had developed, even
by our terrific fighting.
All but 300 of the Anderson Onvalry refused
to go into the fight. Those engaged had a hand
to-hand fight with the 10th South Carolina and

day. Gen. Breckinridge was wounded in the
ear, and his Adjutant General kilted. Wounded
Rebel officers estimate their loss at from 12,000

A DESPERATE BATTLE-TUE REBELS REIN
FORCED-GEN. SHERMAN DRIVEN BACK
CAIRO, 111., Tan. 7.—We bare one day's later
intelligence from Vicksburg of a highly iuter—
estimg and exciting character.
The rebels have concentrated all their forces
from Jackson and Grenada, and all along the
line of road, amounting to 05,000 men, at Vicks
burg.
This overwhelming force attacked General
Sherman on Monday, causing him to fall back to
his first line of defence,.
The rebel entrenchments and fortifications ex
tend back from the city six miles.
Gen. Sherman's force had fought itself to
within two miles of the city, when he was at—
tacked by the superior force of the rebels.
The fighting on Sunday is represented as
having been desperate in the extreme. Batteries
and fortifications were taken and retaken. Whole
regiments and even brigades fought hand to
hand over their guns for the possession of the
defences.
Thetatit accounts stated that the rebel General
Holmes was marching In the direction of Vicks
burg, and it was not improbable that be had
already arrived there.
There was some fighting on Tuesday morning
after Sherman bad fallen back, but it was thought
that he could maintain hie pooltion.
The report that Sherman was reinforced by
Grant, is incorrect. .
Gen. Sherman's loss is estimated at from 4,000
to 5,000.
