A dispatch from Washir gton appeared in THE
TRIBUNE on Wednesday stating that the Quebec
Steamship Company had been compelled to with
draw it's vessels from the trade with Porto Rlco; ana
would discontinue carrying the mails between New
York and that island. The agent OF the company
in this CITY Yesterday said in consequence of the
high diiierential duty at Porto Hlco III favor OF
goods imported under the Spanish flag, and the con-
seauent lack of freight hence TO Porto RcO for YES
sells under other flags the Quebec Steamship Com
paDy has been compelled to Withdraw lts DOats from

tinue III the Bermuda trade meanwhile"
Another shipping merchant said " The CONNER

"The Unreturning Braves"

The Democratic nominee for Con-
gress in this district, Mr.. Ross j. Alex
ander, is the reputed author of one of the
most atrocious sentiments ever offered
by any human being in civilized coun-
try. The story runs about in this wise:
In the year 1868 or GA, wheL the coun-
try was struggling in the throes of rev.
olution, and the bravest boys from the
peaceful homes of the North were being
sacrificed by thousands on the Southern
fields of carna ge, a gathering of Demo
Gratis were banqueting at the National
Hotel in this place, and among other
sentiments offered, was one by Mr.. Al
exander, at the banquet. to this effect:
'The unreturning braves-may there be
million of them" Mr.. Alexander
published card last week denying that
he offered such sentiment at that ban
Quet, but does not say in his card that
he never offered such sentiment. So
far as we are individually concerned, we
prefer to give Mr. Alexander the ben
first time is made, although the charge
against him was published eighteen
years ago, when there would have been
no trouble in proving its Il nth or falsity.
Personally, we know nothing of the
charge, and there are but few persons
now living here who were cOgniZant of
the facts. So far as we have been able
to ascertain, Mr.. A. did not offer the
sentiment alluded to at the banquet ia
BILE, but did offer it and drank to it in a
saloon in 4 basement room under the
banqueting hall. There is one reputable
gentleman living here who states that
he heard Mr.. Alexander offer the senti-
ment, and another who says that he
(Alexander) admitted to him that he did
offer such sentiment upon one Occa-
sion. The names of the gentlemen to
whom we refer, and of whom inquiry
can be made to substantiate what is
here stated, will be furnished inquirers
at distance upon application.

BY reference to another column it
will be observed that during the next
ten DAYS number of distinguished gen
tlemen will address the people of Bel
mont county for the Republicans.
Among them are some of the most bril-
liant and entertaining speakers in the
country. Hon. C. A. Boutelle, congress
man-elect from Maine, fresh from the
fields of his triumphs, comes to Ohio TO
inspire confidence and assist in main
tanning an old-time majority. He is d
brilliant speaker, and should receive a
hearty welcome.
Gen. NOyes, Ex-Governor of Ohio, and
late L. 5. Minister to France, who is to
speak in Bellaire on TIE evening of the
5th of October, is most interesting
and instructive speaker. His clear.
plain statement of facts, and magnetic
elOquence, possess an unfailing charm,
and never fail to hold an audience.
Doubtless, the Republicans of Bellain
will give him a handsome ovation.
Col. G. w. Carter, who speaks at Mar
tins Ferry, October 2, and Etnaville on
the Sd, has before addressed Belmont
county audiences. He is an able and at
tractive speaker, and cannot fail to
please.
Col. J. D. Taylor, who is in the county
the present week, was recently before
the people asking their favors for a
congressional nomination. but the choice
fell upon another, and now like good
soldier, he is on duty to help insure the
success of the Republican party. The
Colonel is good speaker, and we be-
speak for him good meetings.
Hon. J. W. Quinby, who speaks at
Belmont and MOrristown, was IA promi
nent member of the Ohio Legislature of
1850, and has the reputation of being
an entertaining speaker. 1t is his FIRST
visit to the county, and we hope that he
will be cordially received at the places
where he is to speak.
Hon. Charles Townsend, who is to
speak at GAINESVILLE on the 7th of Octo'
ber, stands at the head of the Republi
can State ticket, and is making a gal
liant fight for success. His speeches
have been among the ablest of the pres
ent canvass. We hope that our Repub
lican friends will see to it that necessa
ry arrangements are made for these
meetings. and that hosts of enthusiastic
listeners will be in attendadce upon
them.

FARMERS of the Seventeenth con-

received at the hand and tongue of Con-
gresham Updegraff, we venture to say,
the ablest and fairest defense ever ac-
corded you in Congress. What reason
then why, when in the noontide of his
usefulness he should be displaced by a
man like Ross Alexander? A farmer
himself, he has been and is identified
with your best interests. We ask you,
is it wise, is it profitable. tCiH ii pay, to
vote against him simply from political
prejudice?
