Cossotruarrox.—When the borough of Pitts. burgh was first laid oat, its boundaries were very limped The embryo city was not then expected, to extend boyorid Grant street, ore the Monon . folds, and the point now occupied by the canal, on the Allegheny; and the wards into which the eitYWltaifterWards divided were embraced within these, narrow limit. In the course of time, tbo line was extended up the Monongahela to Suke's Run; then the Northern Liberties, now the Fifth , • Ward, wail added, and finally the City District was taken in, making tho nine Wards now existing, and extending the city lino two mile; frOm the Point; up both rivers: The tendency, it will be seen, has constantly been towards expansion. As the old city limits` became filled np, the territory - beyond was occu 4leti; and when the, outside population bad . grown sufficiently huge, the city limits were ex. tended 1341 as lo • include. all under one common •• government. The whole drift. of etenta has been - towarcli! , c.onsolidatiop,;' ai fast as public „interests and public, convenience seemed to de mand lt.• • . : The general tendency, therefore, being to nonsolidation, we con see nothing to be wondered at In the proposed plan, now before the legisla ,„ ture„ to merge the several municipalities, once . separated, but .now :rendered contiguous, by the . . increase :of Population, ender one government. It is merely following out to its legitimate re -- - sulta the rule . heretofore prevailing. The same • -• ' .... principle which justified or rendered necessary . . the addition of five new wards to the original old ' four, may as properly justify or render ncces • sari' the tollition, of Allegheny; Lawrenceville; Ifirrahtgluun, and the other smaller munici z • Hitherto, it is true; the extension of the city has been confined: to the territory between the . ... two risers; but wonan see in that no good rea aonagainst extending the city lines across the rivers. - Tho thews do not change the oneness of ,-,-, Pone Interests; as a community, nor do they inter-' feitivitit thOpitacticability of a faithful admin:. .. filtration or city laws. •• - „ . The people of• Pittsburgh, Allegheny and the • - adjoining boroughs are one people--ono in views, • • - feelings and interests, so far its 'general matters :,ate concerned. Why, then, shOuld they have different Municipal - governments ? The causes whic. h rendered separate municipalitieenecessary, .:, . at first, do not .now -exist. The time was when • a large strip of unoccupied territory intervened '..'. between Lawretacerlile and • Pittsburgh; as well 'as between Pittsburgh and. Bizminglutm. The roads front one to that other passed through_ • green fields, dotted with farm houses, and had - all the cherecteristies of country thoroughfares. - • But thit time has pissed: The green fields are now built over, anti the country'roads.are tuned • into streets.

Six of the Board of Aldermen gold over, from last year, nod are democrats; notwith 'standing which the Reformers have 22 rotas on joint ballot ..b? 18 democrats. The Thilletin says the utmost political profligacy was manifested at the polls by the party lately in power. In Louisville, James J. Speed; Whig, was elec ted Mayor, ors Saturday, by 92 majority. • In Vmcinnati, which has hitherto been good for 4,000 democratic majority, the most of the nominees of that party in the late municipal election were defeated. The Independent ticket was generally successfalL In wards where the Catholic question was made a test, the Free. School ticket was elected. In Cleveland, also, the Plain Dealer democrat ic clique was signally routed. The Citizens Tick et, with one or two exceptions, was triumphant. Tor Caors.Tho western pressdoes not utter ono voice in i*ard to the growing cropi. The Fort Wayne (Intl.) SentineL of March sth, says: ”The wheat crop in this vicinity looks very unpromising; much of it appears to have been - Winter killed,-but it may, perhaps, if ire have warm gains, Yet recover, and yield a reasonable crop. On our trip faille • West, last week, we noticed that the wheat in Laporte Canny looked eztrern.ely well, and, on inquiry,. were informed that it was unusually fine and promised an abun dant yield." . . The Toledo — R.7)osllnm says: In this vicinity we are told that the prospects of wheat,. though not so, good as in some seasons, are very fair, and with good weather it is expected there will be an ordinary crop." Thu papers in Central Ohio generally speak in' a despalting tono of the crop prosPeets; but the Dayton Gazette, of March 26, indulges in quite • diferent tone: • "Ne are happy to learn fAm a gentleman who has recently. been all over Ohio and through oth er portions of the West, that the prospects of a good yield are ver - ritattering. Some of the late wheat for a time bad the appearance of being drowned or froten out, but it seems to have re covered, and now bids fair to be ordinarily good." We believe it is a sate ruin to take the corn pleb:dogs ' of thupress in such matters with a great deal of allowance. There is no doubt that there have been years when the wheat crop of Ohio looked more promising than it does now, and other years when it did not look ant, better. Last year tho papers prophesied an almost total failure, yet the crop was very near an average one. • The yield is always better than it is pre dicted to be. A RUSSIAN MIRACLY.—Tye Russian papers gravely relate a miraculous appearance of the Blessed Virgin, during one of the recent conflicts on. the Asia is frontier of Turkey and Russia. 4ho is said to have been seen by the combatants on both sides, in the attitude of blessing the Russian soldiers. The consequence was that they .were inspired-vrith supernatural and irresistible valor t. and that (still more wonderful) a number of infidel Moslems were converted to tho or thodox faith."
