SOUTHAMPTON, JULY 13.
The United States' mail steam-ship Humboldt,
Captain J. D. Lines, arrived off Cowes at 2 p.m.
to:day, and after landing the English passengers
and mails proceeded on her voyage to Havre.
The Humboldt left New York on the 2d inst.
She brings on freight specie value $900,000, in
American gold, a portion of which is for London,
and 191 passengers, among whom are Messrs. A.
Borg, Charles Pillschody, and Julius Aroni, bearers
of dispatches respectively to France, Switzerland,
and Prussia.

The Africa arrived out on the 30th ult.
The Humboldt left at anchor, ready for sea, the
ships Mercury, for Havre, and Robert Kelly, for
Liverpool. Passed at Sandy Hook, ship Isaac Webb,
for Liverpool; July 4, lat. 42.10, long. 62.40, saw
American ships Westmoreland and Java, bound
west. July 13, off Start Point, passed merican
ship St. John, bound up Channel.
Accounts from St. Thomas to the 10th of June
state that the yellow fever was raging fearfully
there among the shipping.
Dates from Havannall are to the 22d of June.
The correspondent of the New York Herald
writes :

"There is a tremendous panic among the slavetraders.
Julian Zulueta, their recognised chief, was arrested yes-
terday morning, and is at this moment taking his coffee
in the castle of the Cabana, This is precisely the same
game which was played by General Canedo a few weeks
ago, when, after Antonio Capo had comfortably effected
the landing of about 1,100 slaves near Cardenas, Messrs.
Suaznavar and the other owners of that expedition were
arrested and confined for a few days in their own houses
at Matanzas, and then set at liberty, receiving back, as
a sort of compensation for the little inconvenience they
may have been put to by being compelled to stay at
home for a short time, the 300 slaves which had been
seized by order of General Canedo, but which were now
commanded by his Excellency to be returned to their
original owners, under the name of Emancipados, a de-
scription of servitude a thousand times worse than any
slavery.

"Of course you arelveViusture-thit-thCineatit
Cillia.haie long since-iieTtheir hearts against the intro-
duction of more slavery from Africa, and that the pro-
motion of the diabolical traffic is altogether confined to
the actual traders, who are generally a set of low
Spaniards, principally from the province of Cataluna,
and the needy officials who are sent out from Spain to
better their ruined fortunes. These few worthless
wretches have the business entirely in their own hands.
" The clamours of the people here, but, above all,
the threatening tone assumed in The Times of the 25th
and 31st of May, following so soon upon the recent
warnings in the New Yorellerald, is really the cause
which has induced Canedo to arrest the chief of the
slavetraders and owner of the Lady Suffolk, Julian
Zulueta. But I hope you will point out that this step
was not taken by his Excellency General Canedo until
after the arrival of the European mail per Empire City
on the 19th inst., notwithstanding that long previously
all the circumstances connected with the arrival and dis-
embarkation of slaves from the Lady Suffolk and the
other vessels was as notorious as the sun at noonday,
and was, and is still, the common topic of conversation
at every place of public resort in this city. In the mean-
time, until the public indignation is appeased, Mr. Zu-
lueta, has very comfortable lodgings in the airy and cool
castle of the Cabana—Tacon's Palace (the gaol) was not
good enough for such a respectable individual ; besides
he is very rich—where he has his servants, and every
luxury he may require, allowed. He is under no restraint
whatever, being permitted to promenade, whenever he
thinks proper, the whole length of that vast fort. His
intimate friends—Forcade, Sama, Barris, &c.—visit him
at all hours, and, as I have known it to be the prgctice
in similar cases where plenty of money has been at com-
mand, I would not at all be surprised were I to encounter
any evening after dark Mr. Zulueta, the supposed pri-
soner, taking his drive through the streets of Havan-
nah."

The New York stock market was firm, with an
upward tendency for Government stocks. Ex-
change on London was quoted firm at 1091 to ;
Paris, 515 to 515 i ; Amsterdam, 41 to 44 ; Bre-
men, 791 to 79i. Cotton steady, sales for the
week 13,600 bales. Coffee, demand light, at full
prices. Flour was in good demand for export, and
the grain market active, but the supply was on the
increase. Metals firm and in good request. Rice
heavy. Sugar in moderate demand. The active
inquiry for tobacco continued, upwards of 1,400
hogsheads of Kentucky having changed hands at
advanced prices on speculation ; a speculative de-
mand for manufactured had also sprung up. The
advance in the price of teas was well maintained.
For wool the demand had slightly improved. In
freights, wheat had been shipped to Liverpool to a
considerable extent at Sid. in ships' bags ; flour at
Is. 9d. ; tobacco, 17s. 6d. to 20s. per hogshead ;
cotton, 5-32 d. ; grain, in bulk, sd. ; flour to Lon-
don, 2s. ; cotton to Havre, 3s. Bd.
