A STRAW —A prominent German repub- llcan, recently returned from the West, and who bas heretofore looked upon the republi- can prospects in Ohio as rather cloudy, yes- terday made @ bet that that State would go republican next Tuesday by eight thousand majority. He also made a bet that Indiana would go republican. It isevident that the republicans are in @ much more hopeful mood, concernivg Ohio and Indiana, than they were @ week ago.
