ARRIVAL OF THE ARABIA.

LIVERPOOL, SATURDAY.

The Royal Mail steam-ship Arabia, Captain
Stone, which sailed from Boston on the 14th inst.
and Halifax on the 18th, arrived here this evening,
bringing 162 passengers, but no specie.
The steam kip North American, hence, arrived at
Quebec on the 13th ; and the Fulton, from South-
ampton, reached New York the same day.
the Canada (Royal Mail steamer), hence fur Hali-
fax, was intercepted by the News yacht of the As-
sociated Press, off Cape Race, and her news was
telegraphed thence to all parts of the continent.
The news by this arrival is of very little impor-
tanoe. There is later intelligence from Utah. An
offieer, writing from Gen. Johnston'. :camp on Bear
river, June le, says the army would rename its march
nexday. Gen. Johnston had received an express
from the Pesos Commissioners, informing him that
the army would be received peaceably by the Mor-
mons. The general did not, however, feel any in-
creased confidence in the peaceful attitude of the
Saints, and the army was kept in readiness to repel
any treacherous demonstrations. A proclamation
had been issued to the people by Gee. Johnston, in
which he tells them that the army is as ready now
to afford them assietanoe and protection as it was to
oppose them when in rebellion against the go-
vernment. It wu thought this guarantee would
cause marfy Mormons to evade the despotism of
Young, who has sedulously inculcated the be-
lief that the army was particularly hostile
to them. The troops were in fine condi-
tion, and glad to be released from inaction.
A despatch from St. Joseph, dated July 7, says that
the Salt Lake mail of June 19 had arrived. General
Johnston and his command was met at Echo Canon,
fifty miles from the city. The army was in excel-
lent health and spirits. Brigham Young and his
followers were still at Provo. Young had been to
Salt Lake city to confer with Governor Cumming
and the Pews Commissioners, but the result of the
conference was not known. It was the established
opinion that the Mormons would offer no resistance.
Everything regarding the future movements of the
Mormons was veiled in mystery. Rumours were
still rife, however, that they meditate an occupancy
of Sonora. Conjectures were made that the United
States government intend to purchase the Mormon
improvements in the South Platte.
The Utah correspondent of the St. Louis Repub-
lieu., ander date of June 18, says that " the condi-
tions agreed upon at the conference between Go-
vernor Cumming, the Peace Commissioners, and
the heads of the Mormon church, are, that the troops
shall eater the city without opposition, that the
civil officers shall be permitted to perform their
duties without interruption, and ,that unconditional
obedience shall be paid to the laws of the land,
while, on the other hand, past offences are to be
forgiven, as was stated in the President's proclama-
tion. All the houses in the city had been closed
against both civil officers and strangers, except one
which was occupied by the Governor and his family.
Everybody else was obliged to sleep in the waggons
or on the grounds."
The steamer Empire City was on her way from
Panama to New York with the California mails of
June 20 and about 1,600,000 dollars in gold on
freight.
A Washington telegram says : " Minister For-
syth is to be fully sustained here in his coarse of
resistance to the forced tax on foreigners in Mexico.
Attorney-General Black has decided that the
Mexican dune is an attempt to extort money in
defiance of express treaty stipulations with England
and virtually with the United States, which Mexico
has placed on a footing with the most favoured na-
tions. The British Minister at Mexico did not con-'
sent to the payment of the tax by British subjects,
except under protest."
The Citizens Bank of Memphis, Tennessee, had
closed its dears.

General Quitman was seriously ill, and doubts were
entertained of his recovery.
The Post-office department at Washington was
said to be much embarrassed in its ocean mail
arrangements by the difficulty of ascertaining from
Mr. Collins what his purposes are relative to the ful-
filment of his contract.

Official educes from Utah give promise that the
Indians in that territory might be relied on to remain
neutral in awe of hostilities with the Mormons.
