NO NEWS FROM TIlG sEAT OF WAR.
The GaIcna and Yanue Not Heard From,
Movement of Other Ships

The Galena and Yantie Not Heard From
Movement of Other Ships.
WASHINGTON, D. D., Dec. l7.-No
news has been received at the Navy De-
partment in regard to The United States
steamers Galena and 2antic since theii
departure from New York and none ID
expected for several days yet, notwith.
standing the fact that the vessels viii be
due at Port Au Prince tomorrow.
1t is the impression OF many naval
officers that the steamer Haytien Repub.
lie will have been surrendered and be oB
her way. to New York before the Galena
and Yantic arrive at Port Au Prince,
and in that case the matter ofindemnity
will then be the only thing to be settled,
The United States steamer Richmond
will be ready for sea by Thursday next
and the United States steamer 0ssipee
at Norfolk by the first OF the month.
The intention was 10 send the sea ves-
sells to Hayi as soon as they could be
prepared, but from present indications
IL is not regarded us ut all probable that
either OF them willgo there.

I suffered with catarrh for many years
and got so deaf that went about my Mu-
scum, Circus and Theatre giving directions
and doing business with big ear-trumpet
at the side of my head. 1t was very annoy
ing to me and amusing to those who saw
me By the advice of physicians sought
the climate of the Sunny South. In six
months could see no change and was dis
couraged. At this time l began using
Chalmers English Catarrh Cure. In three
months felt a new man, in six months my
hearing returned. refused to give testi-
monia1 at once for the English Catarrh Cure,
as feared it was not permanent. But q

heartily indorse Chalmers English Catarrh

Greenback StatuarY.

There is one industry in Washington
that has no match anywhere else, and
there is but one man engaged IN It,
He is a crippled vctcrae, and he makes
statuary out &c The macerated pulp OF
WORKOUT greenbacks. When our paper
currency becomes useless from wear
and tear it is maccrated, and this man,
one day, ont of idlt curiosity, modelled
a piece of this plastic stuff into the
image of 4 dos.
1t was not long before he had a little
shop of his own, and there he made his
first bust, one of Lincoln, taking Il
photograph as a copy. Since then he
has made bustS of Washington, Grant,
Lee, Logan, Arthur and many others.
First he makes a clay model, and
around this he places soft pIasterof-
paris, When the plaster hardens, he
digs cut the clay, and into the plaster
mold he pounds the g%reenback pulp.
As may be supposed, this statuary
