CINCINNATI:
MONDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 17th.

THE OHIO ELECTIONS.—All is uncertainty, as yet, with reference to the result of the elections, which transpired last Tuesday in this State, with respect to Governor, or the complexion of the next Legislature.

If, however, the statements of the whig papers are to be relied on, Vance has been elected by from 10 to 15 thousand majority—and the opposition have elected a majority of members of the State Legislature and of Congress. But these Whigs are such sad calculators, and have deceived us so often, that we have come to the conclusion to disregard their statements, and abide the result.

We must confess, that the returns, so far as ascertained, have somewhat disappointed us; though when the fact is taken into consideration, that most of the returns that have come in, are from strong Federal counties, and from the region of country where Gen. Vance resides, and has for years exercised great influence, we are not surprised at the increased majorities of the opposition.— At the present writing, thirty-seven counties have been heard from, which give Vance a majority of 5365 votes The same counties, in 1834, gave Lucas 435 majority. which exhibits an increased opposition majority, since 1834, of 5808 votes.

In the counties to be heard from, Lucas received, in 1834, a majority of 2869 votes. Most of the counties are strong democratic counties. In many of them the population has been more than doubled; and it is reasonable to infer, that they will give an increased democratic majority, sufficient to secure Baldwin's election. To effect this, it will only necessary for him to receive 2919 more than was given in the same counties to Lucas in 1834. At all events, we will hazard the opinion, under no circumstances can Vance be elected by any thing like so large majority as the opposition claim for him; and it is very doubtful in our minds whether he is elected at all. If the counties in Western Reserve do not very much deceive us, Baldwin, notwithstanding present appearances, and the extreme popularity of his opponent, will be our next Governor. But as friend Ritchie would say,

None verily. In the mean time, we would again admonish our friends, to be cautious how they hazard money on the result. Uncertain as is the result of the election for Governor, we are still more in the dark with regard to the election of members of the Legislature. So far as heard from, however, there has been a gain of eight or ten members to the opposition.
