DIR. HAAS, having leased the ROOMS formerly oc-
cupied by DR.. Kivett, in Dr. Brays building oppo-
site the Post Office, for series of years. would re-
spectfully solicit the citizens of Evansville and the
surrounding towns and country, to visit his rooms
and see the specimens exhibition, whether they
need the services of "A Dentist or not.
Since the issuing of his last circular and adver-
tisement over year since, several improvements
and new Inventors have been made, of which he
has Gyaled himself, and allows nothing thar will
subserye the interests of his patients pass nn-
secured His facilities are better and estal,ii-b-
ment larger, without doubt, thar any other in our
State, and equal to any in Eastern cities All those
who need Dental operations performed, and are
pleased with his work, shall be attended to with
great pleasure.
The following the styles Of work nfanutactur-
ed by him:-Continaous Gum; Block or Carved
Work; Vulcanite Base; Coralite; Amber CheOplas-
tic; Gold aud Silver work
Eething can excel the beauty and cleanliness of
the continuous gum work. 1t is without a seam
or crevice. Cheeks that sunken can be restored
to nearly their original contour by this style Of
work and also BY the use of the Vulcanfte Coral
ite, and Amber Base. The latter styles, for light
ness and adaptation to difficult mouths, excel any
cells anything we have ever seen.

GREEN MOUNTAIN FREEMAN, SEPT. 80, 1861.

in all these matters agree to defer them until
the State has, if not more time, at least more
money to throw away in giving local quarrels
an opportunity to exhibit before the Legislature.
But if they are persistently brought before the
" wisdom and virtue" we hope that body will
make short work of such of them as do not
show an imperative necessity for immediate leg
islation.
The business Of tho nation now " first, last
and midst" is war, and the vigorous prosecu-
ton of it. That is also the business of Ver-
mont. All other subjects are dwarfed beside
this all-engrossing one. How shall Vermont do
what is possible for her in this great peril of the
nation! is the question which the coming Leg
islature is especially charged with answering
1t should put every thing else aside that stands
in the way of its giving a noble and speedy
answer to it. And when it has accomplished
that task, and accomplished it well, we believe
the State would be all the better off, both in
purse and in good reputation, if tho Legislature
wonId then adjourn sine die.

Why Hesitate to Confscate Slave Property

We can see no reason why slave property
should be exempt from the usual Liabilities OF
war ; but we can see a reason why, ii any dls-
crimnations are to be made, that property should
be the chief to suffer. Disguise 1t as we may,
it is still evident that the rebellion has grown
altogether out of the existence OF that property
Our society would be perfectly Homogeneous
throughout but for slavery. No other cause OF
war has existed or can exist, on this continent.
Nothing else separates the North and South 1t
was that which broke up the Democratic party.
70 extend its area has been the main purpose oil
southern politicians Because they could not
extend it they declared war. Wherever slavery
exists, there secession is rampant. Where slave
ry has died out, as in the border states, seces-
sion has but puny vitality. Where there is
no slavery, the people to IA man are enthusiasts
tically devoted TO the Union. Such facts cannot
be oyerlooked-N Y. Eve. Post.
The daily Green Mountain freeman. [volume] (Montpelier, Vt.) 1861-1865, 1861-09-30

The news of the advance of our troops from
the Potomac, forcing the Rebels back, and &C.
cupying their positions, is very gratifying, al
though it is saddened by the deplorable mistake
OF the Irish Regiment, who fired upon Motifs
battery. 1t seems possible to avoid such mis-
takes, and the disasters that might result from
them by an attack from the enemy during such
:; confusion as that described in this instance,
make i! necessary to deal severely with the per
sons through whose c4reiesscess Or reck!essness
the accident occurred. Gen. Smith promptly
put Col. Owen $ command back to camp, where
they ought to stay, if they know no more than to
fire upon Union troops because they don't know
but they may be Rebels.
