We take the following accountof Gov
Wrights, visit to the capital of Kentucky from
the Frankfort Correspo ndent OF The Louis.
vile Courier, in his letter of the 22d:
To-day, in addition to all tine haliowed as
sociaiions that are attached to its presence,
has been rendered still more delightful and
sacred by an interchange of Inequalities be-
tween the chief executive officers of this aud
the sister commonwealth of Indiana. We
have seen two gentlemen elevated by the
sovereign people oil their respective States to
the highest offices within their Gift, meeting
with all the cordial good fellowship vi friends
and for their constituencies plighting words OF
mutual friendship aud esteem. We have
seen public demonstration oi the amity that
pervades the different confederacies, and
been happy to recognize in the social cere.
monies OF the day the deep feeling Of affec-
ton that the partakers in a common heritage
such as that OF our blessed liberty, must bear
towards one another.
As it had been arranged, Governor
Wright of Indiana, with his escort, was re.
ceved at Louisville on Tuesday by the Com
mittees of the General Assembly and dep
utaton from Governor Powell. Leaving
Louisville this morning at 6 O'Clock, in a car
especially fitted tor the occasion, the disir-
guished guest and the committees of recep-
lion reached Frankfort at 81 o'clock. While
the train was nearing town salute was fired
from the summit OF the hill over looking the
city. The cadets oil the Kentucky Military
Institute, in full uniform, with flags flying,
and the drum, mems merriest music, beating,
were drawn up in line at the depot. A crowd
Of citizens lined the route of the railroad
through town, and ladies innumerabie gem
med the sidewalks. Great enthusiasm per-
vaded all ranks, and a most excellent sample
of our old fashioned jublations was given the
visitors from abroad.
A handsome suite Of rooms was provided at
the Capital House, where His Excellency the
Governor Of all Hoosierdom, is now receiving
that polite attention and cordial hospitality
our people are famous for the wide world
over.
The exercises Of reception were had in the
Representatives chamber at IL O'Clock. At
that hour, every possible square inch in the
Hobbies and galleries being occupied, the Sem
1 ators were introduced and seated on the left
of the Hall, the Representatives, being on the
right. Immediately afterwards, Gov. Wright
Of Indiana, accompanied by the Hon. c. s.
Morehead entered, and was introduced to
Gov. Powell. This latter functIonary well
coined his visitor in happily conceived and
elegantly executed address.
Gov. Powell said that he was happy in
being enable to give greeting to that honor
able stranger-that Kentucky and Indiana
had always been united, and when Gov
Harrison Officiated as executive of the North
Western Territory. that gallent soldier had
visited this very town to receive ofGov.
Scott q military commission. Upon the red

pagating civilization aod the arts, the two
