No. 463.]

General: I have the honor to inform you that the Zouave John Watson has been arrested at Veroli, and will be taken, to-morrow morning, under good escort, to Rome. While he was searched for at Trisulti, which was his garrison, he was arrested by Captain De Lambilly, at Veroli, where he was on leave. I have the honor also to inform your excellency that his name is not Waston but Watson.

I have the honor to be, general, your excellency’s very humble and obedient servant,

Lieutenant Colonel ALLET.

His Excellency the General, Minister of War, Rome.
