WASHINGTON.

An Indiauapolis Journal Washington special says: Tho. belief prevails among people in Washington that ex-Preeident Cleveland will, beyond reasonable doubt. TSeTho next Democratic nominee for the Presidency, and that his nomination will be forced by the South and West without the consent of New York. This will make a novel Dctnccratic campaign, and a good deal of cariosity as we.l as anxiety will be felt by everyone as to the outcome of a Democratic campaign with New York left oat. Unquestionably the Democrats believe, since their recent victories, that they can elect a President without New York. They believe that their tariff policy has become sufficiently popular in Indian:, Wisconsin, lowa, Nebraska and othei Western States to show them some now fields of conquest sufficient to give them u majority in the Electoral College without the Empire State. Strenuous effort, bare recently been made to bring the two wings of the Democratic party in New York together, but it is thought that should MrClevelaud be nominated he will be knifed by tho Hill'facllon, while should the present Governor of New York receive the nomination the Cleveland wing Will mugwump and may put up an independent candidate. It was believed that among the probable things was the nomination of Governor Campbell, of Ohio, with a view to harmonizing all elements of the Demi • cratic party in New York, but it seems that tho resultof the recent session of the Buckeye Legislature has boon disastrous to tho ohief executive of that State.
