—These unfortunate culprits remain in precisely the same
state es et our last notice -Fox penitent and admissive.
Edwards still obstinately persiefing in Ids innocence. A.
petition in favour of the latter has during the past week bona
got up, and presented to the Secretary of State, urging that
the evidence was of a circumstantial character, and in some
points ineowistent with the prismer's guilt; but we believe
it was by no means numerously signed, and there le not the
least hope that it will succeed. No friends of either of the
prisoners have as yet visited them. The condemned sermon
wee preached by the chaplain, the Rev. Watson King, on
