From intelligent parties who have just been canvass- fing the State beyond the Alleghanies, eastward from Pittsburg, from men who belong to that section and who are looking up the wise men of the East, we gather the following particulars touching the prospect of the com- ing election :— The republican candidate for State Judge (Williams, @ Western man), wil! poi! a pretty full republican vote in the western counties. He wil! do better, they say, in Alleghany than Governor Geary’s vote last fall; but on the county candidates there is af outside working- men’s movement, and a movement by the {taine Liquor Jaw men, which is likely to help the democrats. There fealso a little clique of republican Jobnson office men who are cutting in and out. In half a dozen other ‘western counties the teetotal temperance men, of the Scotch-Irieh Puritanical breed, are running their tem- Perance tickets on this and that local candidate, and the Fadicais are afraid the results will be some bargaining ‘and scratching to the prejudice of Williams and the re. nile the radicals of the east, notwithstandin; this, expect to be saved by the west, the party in Pitts. ae no faith in Philadelphia. They will be satisfied if Williams comes out of Philadelphia with three thou- majority, and the popularity of his oppenent will a heavy weight to the Alleghanies, General Sheridan ex the republicans a lift in Philadelphia which is ging them together; but the fucion of the different cliques is not yet complete.

The radicals have within a few @ays become more hopeful, and, counting upon a reac- tion which they claim is now taking place, they claim the State. For some days after the Maine election al! shrewd observers predicted a conservative success. “But we will see what we will seo,"" The radical hopes fare based upon the effect of the Sheridan reception here ‘under the exclusive charge of our City Councils, altheugh the brigades commanded by Generals Lyle and Leech, the democratic candidates for Sheriff and Register, were the finest in she line, and its probable effect upon the “boys in biue,”’ who have felt coldly towards the radical local tickets here and in several interior counties, in consequence of the rejection of soldier candidates, In this city the democrats have mominated three distinguished generals for the most lucrative offices, and expect to elect them. They have ‘also endorsed the nomination of Judge Ludlow, made by @ poople’s convention, composed of our leading lawyers ‘and basiness men of all parties. His election by a Gecided majority is conceded. The republicans have held our city government for nine years, and are being Gemoralized by « rapacious “ring,” organized on the «plan of your city ‘‘ring,”” which you bave exposed so faithfully.

INDIANA POLITICS. SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OF THE HERALD. Local Elections in Indinna=The General Result to Determine the Po; j-The Democrats © Governor Morton Thinks of Democratic Arguments en Finance. InpIANAPouis, Oct. 2, 1867. ‘The elections in this State on the 8th of October will be confined to county offices; but, nevertheless, an intelli- gible expression of the popular sentiment on national issues ig sure to be rendered. In a few counties, of course, local questions wil! be paramount to all others, but the general result will determine the tendency of Political fecling. Before the war this was demo- cratic, but during the struggle the peace-at-any-price party, both here and in Ohio, made themselves so ob- noxious to all lovers of the Union that the democrats, with whom, of course, they acta ‘death, Were in variably beaten at the polls, and the republicans hailed Todiana as a regenerate and converted State, freed from the slimy grasp of the copperhead party. During the rebellion the republican majorities ranged from ten to twenty-five thousand, but since the return of peace a surprising change has taken place in the disposition of parties, The democrats, who’ walked in fear and trem- Diing while Stanton and ‘the radicals ruled with irre- sponsible sway, are now holding themselves erect and entering with all their ancient ardor into the contest for power and the management of national affairs. To- day the democracy calculate upon as majority at a gen- eral State election of twenty thousand votes, and on that Supposition it must be concluded that Indiana has re- turned to her first love. To account for this extraordi- {ary progress in popular favor of thé hitherto despised Pd is not so difficult an undertaking. It must be born mind that a majority of the Indiana soldiers w Bs Nit eri fore the war, bat ender tbe qacitement attendant upon the ‘ape struggle for the Union, ‘an ching the contagion of aversion to all who (am. im ge ‘under the Seaigration of copperhead, the, "SD +> tie, iblican ‘and kept that party in P 7 et oer these soldiers have come e influence of their old democratic friends wi whom for many cogent reasons they are now in intimate affiliation, They complain ef the beggarly way in which Congress has treated them; they reflect see the part they took in preserving Union, and looking around cannot fail to see how the stay-at-home members of the party in + who made moncy out ofthe country’s misery, care no more for these impoverished of the natiob’s flag than they do for the foiled and beaten rebele. They say government thought greenback: enough with which to pay them, and why not use the same consideration t the bondholders. Again the Tepugnance to negro suffrage is very trong, much more go than in Ohio, ‘The soldiers say it is not only aslur on themeelves to pronounce the negro the savior of the coun- tey, buta and glaring lie to the people to assert that the colored race fought with bravery, or that t! were ene-tenth as loyal as the white Unionists of the b, yet the radicals are never weary of singing the praises of the negro’s lovalty. From the spirit of hostility which prevails in this State to the admission of negroes to the franchise, it is evident that the most determined stand will be taken and a great democratic triumph grined upon that issue alone. But just now, inthe absence of a regular ;platform for Staie election, tho greenback qvestion is the great topic of tho hoar. It is taiked over from one end of the state to the other, and whether it be wise and practicable or not to pay the bondholders in greenbacks, or to tax therr investments, the subject possesses a pecullar {ascination for the agri- cultural and laboring classes. Bondholders are scarce in Indiana ; the entire mass of the democracy and « large number of republicans go in heart and soul for the new national irsue, according to the accounts received hora from other Western States, the cry of yi. the debt im greenbacks” has spread like wildfire to the remotest parts of Nebraska. Everybody here will tell you the financial question 18 the only one worthy of their attention. Bs affects every man’s pocket,” they exclaim, and what- ever affects his pocket will materially influence his vote. They are watching intently the resuit of the Uhio elec- tion, for it must in one way or regulate the pos!- tion of parties in this tate next year.
