Our returns from both these States yet partial
and incomplete So lar they have come in, we have
been disappointed in both. Ohio is favorable Tor
the democratic party Pennsylvania is adverse. We
entertained no doubt about carrying the Keystone-we
had no hope of succeeding in the Buckeye.
We are now satisfied that Johnston is elected governor
by less than 1000 There is much ground for hope
that we have carried the gallant Weller.
We shall present tables of both the elections as soon
their returns are tolerably complete We have drawn
upon the northern press for the probable results of the
Congressional elections in both States:
