Political Changes.--The Albany Argus, of Monday, speculating upon the recent political changes in Maine and California, says:

"Three weeks from to-morrow, elections will be held in the States of Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Iowa. Two of these States --Pennsylvania and Indiana--have been quite closely contested. Last year, the Republican majority in Pennsylvania was 17,178. Should the Democrats gain proportionately in that State as they have just gained in Maine, the majority against the radicals would be 50,000! In Ohio, at the last election, the Republican majority was 42,686, and a gain equal to that of Maine would give the Democrats about 12,000 majority. In Indiana, the Republican majority was last year 14,202, and the Democrats there can have about 35,000 majority next month, by doing as well as their brethren in Maine. Applying the same rule to New York State, and the result would be astounding. Fenton's majority last year was 13,789, and at the rate of gain in Maine, the Democrats would have a majority of about a round 100,000."
