Because the population shifted.
In more detail, I mean that the capitals change to match up with population distribution; the capital is where the majority of the people live. Savannah was the first capital because that was where the most people lived at that time, and when people began to move away to Augusta from Savannah, it became the new capital because that's where most people lived. It's the same idea for Louisville.

More people started moving to Louisville than there were in Augusta, so the capital shifted to Louisville to be in the highest populated area.
