Wm. D. Totty.

--A visible impression has been made upon the mind of this condemned man since his respite, and for two or three days past his attention has been at times fixed upon religious subjects. In his devotional exercises he appears sincere, and his spiritual advisers have been much encouraged to persevere in their work. When his wife is with him he seems very cheerful, and there is nothing in his general demeanor to denote to an observer that he dreads his fate. His friends are circulating a petition to the Governor in his behalf, and a good many signatures have been obtained.

Prayers were offered in several Churches yesterday, by request, for the spiritual benefit of the prisoner.
