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.

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. . ■salasUts tn Savannah.

From Nashville (Tens) Bauer, Tth. 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.

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.

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.

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.
