A View of the Ohio Election.


 NEW YORK, Oct. 8.-Secretary of the Navy Chandler was asked at the Republican headquarters to-day, ''You are counting on Republican victory, of course. What major ity do you think the party will have in the Buckeye State?" E'I see that many of the political arithmetieians are calculating on Republican majority of ten thousand. There are over eight hundred thousand voters in the State and shall be much surprised if the ticket does not receive majority of sixteen thousand. It may go beyond that. Blaines trip has been conducive of none but the best results and the canvass has been one of great enthusiasm. It is the intention, am told, of the Democratic National committee to spring some new clap-trap on MT. Blaine Saturday morning and send it out into Ohio with the intention that it will influence the result. Let these men do it. It will bene- fit rather than injure MT Blaine"
 It is contended at the Democratic head quarters that the Republicans are tormenting themselves with phantoms. Senator Cor man knows of no specific revelations, but will not be surprised if half a dozen bomb shells burst between this time and Saturday.
