Governor Hendricks, Of Indiana, who is here for
q few days on professional business, called on the

dent good-naturedly alluded TO the recent demo-
cratic tidal wave which had swept west and east
OF Indiana, the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans alone

eve shall be ready for you In 1876" Secretary
Fish philosophically said the next Presidential
election was no further OF than the last implying
that the power Of recuperation was still left to
the republican party.
Governor Hendricks declined to be interviewed.
His opinion OF the cause OF the overwhelming sue
cess OF the democratic party woula not change
the result, and individual explanations were Of
little consequence when the men of the country
voted right. The Governor Will not under any
circumstance accept the position OF United States
Senator from Indiana.

The obsequies over the remains OF the Right
Rev. ID. w. Bacon, Bishop OF the Diocese Of Port
land took place to-day In the Cathedral OF the
Immaculate Conception. The ceremonies COM
menced at ten A. NJ and concluded at two p. NJ.
Long before the opening of the Cathedral the ad-
jaccnt streets were crowded with people from far
and near. who were anxious to gam entrance to
the imposing structure where lay the remains OF
the distinguished lamented and beloved departed.
Probably not less than 10, 900 people were around
the Cathedral when the doors were opened, ana
when 1t is considered that not more than one
fourth that number could find even standing room
within the walls the disappointment OF thousands
may be imagined. The interior was very taste

and the State-Secrecy I'm the Interest
OF the stock Jobbcrs-The Feeling OF
Foreign Bondhold ers.
RICHMOND, Nov. 10, 1874.
No more hignhanded proceeding or glartng
illustration OF ofilcia tyranny has lately come TO
public notice than the attempt made by Governor
Kemper to-day to prevent the press from obtaining
reliable Information concerning the conference
with the bondholders OF the State. Virginia, un-
able to pay her enormous debt, unwilling to prom
ise her creditors anything satisfactory to them,
and guided BY those who, while not open
repudiationists. are working in that direc-
tion, some months ago called this confer
ence OF the bondholders. All the credit
invited to be present, and the Governor and
Treasurer were requested to meet them ana II
idea OF impenetrable secrecy was ever contem-
plated by the General Assembly when IL authorized
the conference.
OF it was the public de0t OF the State. Her Ex-
ecutive and Treasurer were her agents to confer
with her creditors, ana such a meeting should
have been open to the closest scrutiny. But, con-
trary to all precedents made and established the
press were peremptory excluded and the pro-
hand, 1t was well understood that secrecy In cases
OF this kind generally results IN advantages to
those on the inside, who can, by the dexterous
use OF the telegraph wires, speculate uron the in
formation obtained in advance OF It's publication.
To-day, while the reporters one of whom went
TO the conference as n bOndnolder, were severely
excluded, Jobocrs were teegraphing advces TO
Wall street upon the information OF the proceed
ngs OF the meeting, but nothing conld be obtained
by the press except what the Governor and
others thought proper to publish.
Reports were submitted oy the Governor and
the Treasurer, and committee was appointed TO
consider the same and report at to-nights ses-
sion Mr.. Hugh McCulloch, late secretary OF the
United states Treasury made speech represent
ing the views OF the holders OF Virginia bonds in
England. He stated that the foreign b0ndhOlderS

REGNIER AND BISMARCK.

The French Go-Between al Metz and the
Prince Chancellor OF Germany in Cor
rcspondsnce.
The Neue Freie PreSse OF Vienna states that
correspondence has been opened between General
Regrter and Prince Bismarck, and says:-The
wen known mediator OF Metz, who was recently
sentenced to death by French court martial and
who Is now residing in London has been ex.
changing letters with Prince Bismarck concerning
his death sentence. To letter dated Septem-
ber %, 1874, Bismarck replied that he thought
Regnier wrote good deal too much. Somewhat
doubtful on the subject, Regnier again wrote,
saying:-
"Prtnce, a French court has condemned me to
death as German spy. II any one in the world
ean testify to my innocence 1t is His Excelle2cy,
Count Bismarck. He had no dealings with spies.
One word from his pen, even II 1t did not prevent
my having to seek home abroad. would at least
have DESTROYED the impression which gave occa-
sion for such decision. 1t is q natural feeling
that f the political does not enter into the ques-

varzin, october 2 1874, saying that he (Regnier)
having calico his attention TO the sentence
OF the court martial, he felt bound to say
he believed that any testimony he night have
rendered would have had but little weight as the
settled belief OF SO many OF his cOmpatriOtS in
France was that he was an open enemy to France
In this respect treating him unjustly, which fact
alone might have induced him to silence, however
much he might have felt 1Or him (Regnler) per-
sonaI1y. Nevertheless, he would say that he mad
never known Regner to act otherwise than for
the best interests OF France, and that the
German authorities had so recognized him.
He knew everything that Regnler did in
connection with the army at Metz was intended
suspension OF hostilites in that quarter, and he
always had found him faithful during the negOtia-
tons. These negotiations being so conducted
fastened the result-viz., producing treaty OF
peace In tue name OF the French government. In
CONCLUSION Bismarck says ~ can assert upon my
honor that you showed no partality to us, and
that believed while you were gong to and from
. real useful knowledge OF the means necessary to
secure peace.n
