We have on our table a pamphlet ol 188
pages, bearing the title : “ Si. Louis, the Future
Great City ol the' World.” It ia the work ol
X, o. ReaTia, Esq-, and is pnblished by order ol
the county court. The author, U he has not
established the claims oi St. Louis to the pro
phetic title which he has adopted, has certainly
shown that its advantages and prospects are
superior to those of any other city oi the West,
tnd guarantee a grand tutors for It The popu
lation ol St. Louis by the census ol 1870, is
813,000. Situated upon the Mississippi river,
with a vast network ol railroads converging to
that point, it is obliged to command the trade
and commerce ol a vast and fertile region ol
country.
The pamphlet before us states that there are
twenty-four distinct trunk roads converging st
this dty, nearly every one ol which is built, or
under way ol construction, and not one will be
abandoned. With this number ol railroads,
and the “inland sea” washing her docks,hen
naft of transportation will be almost unri
valed by those ol any inland dty in the world.
Every day tarnishes new proois ol the growth
of this region in wealth and population,
and of the truth ol the remark—" West
ward the star ot empire wends its way.”
We rejoice at this prospect We long to see the
day when the political power of the Govern
ment shall be trans'erred from the East to the
West, and no longer be controlled by New
England ideas and New England interests.
That day will surely come.

Opinion ot Attorney-General Farrow.
We have received, under the frank ot Hon.
Marlon Bethone, a pamphlet copy of the
“ Opinjoa ot Hoa. Henry P. Fajtow, Attorney-
Generol*! Georgia, on the law governing the
iiioing of certificates ot election to members ol
Congress.” A letter of Governor Bullock is
published with the opinion, from which it ap
pears that he submitted the case ol Hon. Nelson
Tift, member elect from the second DUtricl, to
the Attorney-General, and asked she latter for
his “ official opinion” upon the question,
whether tne certificate ot election should be
issued to Mr. Tin or to Mr. Whittle/.
The Attorney General hold* that the Gover
nor, in determining that question should “ be
governed aloDe by the regular and legal returns
made,” and that it Is not competent lor him “ to
go behind the returns, and inquire into the fair
ness or unfairness of the election ; ” that the
latter question is one for the House ot Repre
sentatives to determine.
It appears that the first question is raised in
relation.to the return ot the managers ot elec
tion for Sumter county. The return is admitted
to be regular and legal in term, but two ot the
managers, D J. Sheppard and D. Barwal,
after they had pat their signatures to the
return, filed with the Governor affidavits
to the efiect, that they signed the same under
the belief that their lives would be taken if they
refused. These affidavits it is stated in the opin
ion are supported by the sworn statements of
other persona The attorney general comes to the
conclusion that the facta contained in these affida
vits nuke a case of duress, and that therefore
the return must be considered as if these two
managers hail never signed it; and that after
striking their names ofl the return It is without
the number ol signatures required by law, and
therefore is irregular, and the vote of Sumter
county must be thrown out. This is the sob-
tUnce— the gist, of the Attorney General’s opin-
• ion.
II the statement of facts contained in this
document is lull, and the affidavits which are
published contain nothing further, then we
think the Attorney-General has laden into an
error in holding that they establish s case ot
ctoraa. All the authorities. It we are not
greatly miitakeo, require that the danger to
person or lile, to amount to duress in law,
most be immediate and present. The existence
of a state ot lawlessness and violence in Sum
ter, or a vague apprehension of perianal
danger arising trout that condition of things,
or threaisoi violence made at a distance, and
at a diiUrent time, are not sufficient to
render the return voij on tne ground of duress.
This is a very remarkable case ot duress. It
carries suspicion ou its very lace. It these
managers were controlled by their ie.rt when
they signei the return, why I* it that they have
since sought to recall their signatures and thus
vacate the return ? Have their tears ceased to
control them ? Are tney not still exposed to
the same danger lor this ac ?
Unless other tacts are established in tbie case,
we are bocod to believe that it is a trumpted
up all dr, that it is only another attempt of the
Radical iaction to deprive the people ol their
right oi representation in Congress with scarce
tne thaiow ot a pretext. .

A Sudden Death.
Dr. William Burdett, who resided at No. 839
Booth Uhetry Street, died st 8 o'cli>ck last even
ing under the most peculiar circumstances.
About ball an hour previous to his demise he
had driven to the residence ot Conductor Ed
ward Welts, near' the Decatur Depot, who lay
very ill ol inflammatory rheumatism. Alter
leaving some instructions with his patient he
got into his buggy and started his horse home
ward.
Sudden death, like a stroke of lightning, over
took him, probably btfbre be had driven more
than a tew hnndred yards, and the late living,
speaking human being, who a tew mo
ments before had talked calmly and quietly,
alter hla usual manner, to s patient
and that patients' family, and bad even
joked with a little boy whom he met by the
street side as he entered his buggy, still sat stark
and still upright upon his seat, the reins clutched
in his hands, staring eyes looking out upon the
street driving bomewaid—a corpse. Father of
us sll, what was it that those who met that
horse and vehicle saw in the face ot the driver

horse prodded oe toward hi* late master's door,-
and those who looked into tint vehicle tell a
something awful and indefinable which made
them shudder, per hap*, and hasten involuntarily
forward. The horse drew up at the tamiliar
hiiching-post, but no master descended, and he
stood gentlv pawing the ground, anon jerking
the lines, but he got no an-wer to these signals,
however oit repeated Jf i tamiliar voice which
had so often chided or cheered him in long
Jaunta Then be pricked back his tars and
lerked the reins a little harder, and listened,
but there was no response, save the grating of
the leather . oyer the dashboard What
could it ail mean? And now sirs. Burdett
looks out ol the window and cays, “ Well I de
clare, the Doctor’s come, but w hy don’t he get
out?” Bbe looks a moment, but be dneau'l
-move, and she says perhaps he wants something,
and then she trips out to the street, looks up
into the hnjgv aod ssys, “ Well, William, what
is it?” No answer. And then she beads lor-
ward a little, aud the light shines fuller on the
figure there, ft is her husband, but the face is
livid and the e'es blindly staring. “ William !
oh Wiliiam !” and she grasps aim by the hands,
still clutching the reins ; they are cold and slid.
He is dead. Oh, awlul event, that to you, gen-
lie reader, shad never happen, to have one very
dear to you, lile ot your iite. ride dead to your
door on a quiet evening—let us draw a curtain
of solemn respect over that widow s sorrow.

Dying Out—The late census proved conclu
sively, What hasoileu been asserted in tueso cot-
umuB, umi Hie uegro race iq mis country U
slowly hut surely wasting away. The returns
snow an increase in the number of negroes du
ring the la.it decade ot about 3 or 4 per cent.—
HiD, os it is slated, however, is baaeii ou the
present poputMiou m tue Guit, or Colton states,
aud does not memde the border States, and it n>
not only probable, but almost certain, that this
emigration equals the apparent increase iu the
Cotion Stales.
So it may safely be asserted that tho negro
has becj stationary during the list ten years,
riifttionarine-s in a race means decline. The
negro race is dejlinufg, a tact which is estab
lished not only by offlcitl tables, oui by the ob-
tcrratioLia ot every candid and intelligent man
in th • country. It is declining, Dot only in
numbers but in intelligence and inora iiy.
NotwU-hBianding the ne*rro has schools and
ch.urclics open to him every where, he (hies not
itteod tfie lormer, And a.i to the latter, he has
converted Uuai long since into pltccs for prac
ticing a worship he »rer akin to letiahUrn than
to cbriattanity. We *nte what wc know when
we my, that, a* * general thing, negroes Will
not attend m h *ol They have a constiiutional
averB i n to mvntai eilort, and cannot be per-
hiindi d or driven to apply themselves to books.

ot the r> oourres of me country.
The fact is unrj i' Blionable. The negro race
in iht* co.in»ry ih thing exterminated. Il is loU
lowing the tooutepH ot tiie Indian, and he lore
