The Vienna correspondent of the Zimes says even if the Porte admitted it, Servia, asa vassal State, could novsit with Turkey, but Montenegro, which is recog- nized as independent, may participate im the conference, Regarding a reguiar armistice, the Turks’ chief objection is being obliged thus to recog- nize Servia as a belligerent on equal terms, But this obstacle 1s believed to be not insurmountable, M.

THE END OF A VIGOROUS CANVASS Prognostications and Speculations on the Result. HOW THE GERMANS WILL VOTE Detailed Democratic Estimate in the Hoosier State. ANXIETY AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL. —_-- + Secretary Chandler's Intimidation in the Departments. —_—_—__—. OHIO, Crxorxmati, Oct.8, 1876. On the eve of battle the situation of affairs in Ohio may be summed up as follows:—The issue between Barnes and Bell will not be as hotly contested as was the canvass of Hayes and Allen last year. There will be a falling off in the total vote, but notto a large ex- tent. Whatever there may be, however, wiil tell against Barnes. THR DEMOCRATIC ORGANIZATION is thorough and rehing, but will not avail against the fact that this isthe year of the Presidential elec- tion, Democratic discipline will fail todo more than get outa full democratic vote, and the democratic vote isa more constant quantity than the republican vote, A full democratic vote, therefore, does not mean much more than an ordinary vote. At the last moment the predilections of doubting men favor Hayes nnd Barnes. The demo- cratic chances of success were best ten days ago; since then they have visibly lessenod. Hayes’ candidacy helps Barnes, but the same cannot be said of Tilden’s influence for Bell, it is aquestion, indeed, whetner Bell for Secretary of State in October will not poll more votes than Tilden for President in November. The democrats exaggerate and the republicans affect to depreciate the extent of the subversion and allena- tron of THE GERMAN VoTR. . One third at least of the Germans will vote for Barnes without asking a question about his crusading record, Another third bave been wrought upon to vote for Barnes tor the sake of the party aud Hayes, and they have been persuaded to bury their animosity, aud will either vote for him or not against him, Tho, remaining third will undoubtedly support Bell. ‘THE GREENBACK VOTE ‘will not be felt in the State election. It may possibly affect the choice of one or two Congressmen. The tem- perance vote,,which amounted to 2,500 last year, will be cast for Barnes, Tho regular candidate, Chapman, bas not been mentioned sinco his nomination and can- ‘not at best get mare thi light scattering vote. The soldiers’ vote will be given to Barnes almost without exception. A later and careful review of the ficld is ‘the basis for THE FOLLOWING PREDICTION of the result next Tuesday. Barnes will carry the State by from 3,200 to 3,700 majority. He will run behind the rest of bis ticket 4,000 to 5,000 votes, The republicans will elect the following Congressmen :— Dist, 17. William McKinley, 1s, James Monroe, 19. James A. Garfield, 20, Amos Townsend. 10, Charles Foster. 16. Lorenzo Dantord. Being a total of nine or a gain of two. The democrats will carry :— Dist, 11.
