As intiulated in the last number Of the WATCH
MAN, n petition was sent to Governor Peck last
week, signed by DIR. Braley, of the Barre bank
aud several OF the leading citizens Of Montpelier
asking that Alphonsos might be removed to the
state prison. 1t was generally felt in the commit
nifty that so important a prisoner ought to be
securely confined, and there seemed to 10 good
ground TO believe that desperate efforts might be
made TO secure his release. On Monday morning
Sheriff i.yford came into town with an order for
his removal, from the governor. When the news
was communicated TO Alphonsos he seemed greatly
dlspinted, and sending for Mr. Heath his counsel,
he had long interview with him. In n converse
ton with the reporter Of the WArcnMAN he ridi-
cued the Idea Of his escaping and said that he had
given no reasons for any suspicion Of that kind.
lie also said that he had no hopes of procuring
bail, and expected to remain incaTcerted till after
his trial In September. lie was taken TO Windsor
on the nine o'clock train, in charge OF Sheriff Iy-
ford and Deputy Sheriff Dudley. At White River
Junction he ate hearty dinner, and reached the
state prison at about halfpast Ills cell is in
the southwest corner OF the lower tier, and is u
very good one, though not so spacious as his
quarters at the Jail lie babe Mr. Daddy good
bye with some emotion, thanked him for his kind
ness and compimented him ON the condition Of
the Jail, which, he said, WAS much better than
jails in general. Not having been sentenced, Al
phonsos will not have 10 work, or don the prison
Curb, but will lie as much at leisure ~ II In our
Jail at Montpelier.
