Ing the disposal of bis charge.
Rumors have been continually hving about
this afternoon, TO the effect that the steamer
Clyde ran in along close to the beach about four
o'clock this afternoon, and landed Davis and his
party on the beach about one mile from the port,
and from there were marched into sally port of
the water battery, in order 10 escape the gaze of
the curious.
The steamer Clyde has just dropped her an
chor in the roads and there now seems no doubt
but that JEFF. Davis must have been landed
somewhere along the beach.
No communication whatever is allowed with
the steamer, and il is more than probable that
the greater portion OF the party still remain on
board. The officer in charge awaits instructions
from Washington.
