GOV. HENDRICKS.

The Democratic Vice-Presidential Candidate at Louisville. Ex-Gov. Hendricks visited the city of Louisville, Ky., on the invitation of the Exposition managers, and was given a cordial reception. In the evening, says a dispatch from that city, “he was escorted to the Exposition Building, where, in spite of tne fact that rain was falling in top-ents, he was enthusiastically received by 20,000 people, who gave him a Kentucky welcome. As he entered the building, Gilmore’s band played ‘Hall to the Chief,’ changing later to familiar national airs. The distinguished visitor was happily introduced by Col. Bennett H. Young, President of the Exposition. Mr. Hendricks theu made a timely and appropriate address for the occasion. He was simply a visitor and guest of the Exposition, and the subject of politics was not mentioned in his short speech. He left the building amid tremendous cheering, and returned to his hotel.”
