in The steamship Coiumbja, Captain Van Sice, from Havana on the 7th arrived at this port yesterday, bringing letters from our several correspondents tn Cuba, whicli contain the particulars of the arrest of General Cioicouria and his ariival aud execution in Havana.

The boat on which lie and his companions had embarked was taken, after they had returned to shore, and they were compelled to secrete themselves on the key. which is eighteen miles long and six wide. She ncrnes of his companions are said to be Mendoza, Zayas, the two Agneros, besides an American.

Kiey are not yet taken. Goicouria was brouunt here to-fiay. An Immense crowd awaited htm at the depot and accompanied him tluough the streets, shouting "Viva mpafla 1" and "Dealh to traitors 1" He was strongly guarded, his hands tied behind. He was taken to the palace, where he had an interview with the Captain A gentleman who was present reports him as Kiying, "1 tried to escape in order to publish a manifesto to civ countrymen, informing them that it was time to stop bioofishe'l, and that the cause was lost for the etaphr-sizing the "present." The Captain General then took Him bej'ona the hearing of the others present ana conversed about five minutes.

It in seen in the f.icc tnat people are woat to "sympathize v.1ih all rebels except their own." The United with whom decent respect for theopiuionaof mankind is a tradition, appreciated that at the close of the late civil war, and though 1 Here were plenty of fanatics to cry out, for blood cn- lighteucr! public s' tiliment ikn 1 the gratification; ami though it must bo tnat, ia tae compromise, no great, iiniouiit of magnanimity was manl- icsted, yet oilcmler? were le with life and hope, ami as their offences had been or political character so was tiieir piinisiiment. The good policy ol llhs co.ir.-^e has been already muce evident. What remains of opposition ro the government is nothing inoic ttian a morbl-l, sickly hent.meiil, from winch nothing praciioal coukl ever oinan.ilc, an 1 the great rofiubliu, iu despite or the stupidity of her Legislature, is stronger than ever. spnlii, winch Is in soatimoat end fccliiw 200 behind the has now, as ever, only the bullet and ganvnefor her enemies. Her so'is prate loudly her yut, while at times, throngh.tlie necessities of the c.i^c, accepting proirured repentance and friendship from she had hated, yet for her enemies once ia hor power she has but a short, swift, iiml sppeily In every step of her history, from tie rini-i of Cortes and Tizarro, crying out, "Kill I kill 1" she has lost, a Comment, become a byword for cruelly, dwindled from her proud pre-eminence to a second or mini rate rower; yet learning noihing of the past in this nineteenth century, her footsteps are still mirl a rlvnlet of blood, calm and cruel amid the execrations of the vorid.

It were difficult to tell ol' the thrill of satisfaction winch went through the city last evening when it was announced that the si earner Trmnfo had arrived with General Domingo Goicouria on board, a prisoner. Oae felt, tiio word passed from month to moiith, that delightful had occurred-und there had. An old, gray-hcailed man, worn with fatigue, hurl been captured, anil, inste.i-j or being shot once, as was ttio custom, the government, had graciously consented to send him here to ba choke to death on a platform hi the presence or thousands of syecta'tors, cacii 0112 of whom woultl have been delighted to plunge a dagger into his heart. reeHns was well represented by the press. The Yoz ac Cuba, which went to press be- lore the arrival of the steamer, in announcing the capture or the old man commences with "Viva ttca Espu.ua una mil voces'" seemed incapable of restraining its delight, ami con- tunics, "Domingo Goicouria, the farcicalj so-called General of ruined exnemtious; the old filibuster Mho has flgureil in all the conspiracies in Cuba against the integrity of the national territory; tne assistant in one time of Narciso Lopez, again or Bamba Pinto and lastly of Cesiiodea, is in the power of our trooos has been apprehencled by our war marine in the hey Gtiayabo, where we was hiding from one of our gunboats, and alter having passed through the streets of Puerto Principe, guarded by Spanish iroc.ps and manifesting the renentance of a coward such as characterizes all tne supporters or Cespedes, "Hill come 10 Havana to be Judged by a council of war, the result of which is not doubtful." It seema in truth that some such di-cosition was made ot the old man, and tnat he was marched through the streets or Puerto Principe lor the delectatioif or the troops ana' Spanish residents, before being sent here so Havana to be killed for the delight of this populace.

Scares had the Triunfo entered the harbor ere. the Diario tie Tn Marina published an extra announcing that he had arrived; that he had been on a launch to the Castillo de la Punta, thence conducted to the national prison, when followed a council of war composed ot captains; that he had neon sentenced to die by the garrote, had been placed In ttie capllla, and would be executed at seven or eight in the morning, near the Castillo del Principe, one company of each battalion and the rolunteer cavalry being present. All this without a period. According to the accounts Goicouna, with others. Had crossed over from the mainland to tne key Guayabo, sliuated west of Xuevitas.

and nearly opposite Guanaja, intending to embark for Nassau, iloubtless the same boat with wtilch they leu the Hand. Soon alter shoving off they were discovered ny the gunboat, which sent her boats off in pursuit. 1'he lugitlves returned to the shore o( tlie key, leaped out and fled. A3 they had evidently lert no boat, on me other side to use in case of retreat the cnpinre became simply a question or time. Golcoa- pa, who, on account or 1113 age, was the least able to endure the fatigues of his tltnation, became the llrsi, victim.

AS reported, the pursuit ol' the others continues aim, while some ol them may manage to back to the mamund, the ultimate capture of tters anl people are returning. An eye witness states that 311 Immense crowd had gathered to wit. ness the scene, ana throughout the utmost order was maintained. The General marched out from the Prlucipe witu perfect coolness, gazing around upon the people and the scene as though, an indifferent spectator. He ascended the platform and manifested a disposition to address the crowd, wuiclj was dented mm.

A crucifix was tuen presented to him, which he refused, motioning it away. He was then P'wea position, a turn or the screw was given, and the old revolutionist and conspirator, who all Ins life long had worked for the separation of his country from carried otr lifeless the grave of a lelon. A telegram from New Tort states that the Cuban Junta tad made overtures for a settlement to the Spanish Minister at Washington, wlucu that official In a despatch of yesterday denies. A letter from Manzanlllo, the sotb, claims that Hie Dgnt at Maclo, in which the insurgents were commanded by Modesto Diaz, as mentioned in a recent despatch was a very-disastrous one to them. They numbered 1,200, comprising all that had passed the Canto, and awalled the approach of the troops within lutrenchments, each of whicn was seventy metres ions and forming parapets.

These were and ihe rout of the rebels is claimed to have been complete. In a hut were encountered twenty-four bodies, and a 'little distance from it nine mere. The Spanish loss is repoited at ten killed and forty wounded, rne insurgents fled toward Nagna, the troops in pursuit. The Insurgent General D. Luis Tertot had presented himself toValmaseda in Bayamo.

The San Qmntin regiment had reconnoitred the hills of. Nagua, La Ansulema, La Gloria, La Peiia and Los Tevis without discovering any insurgents. It is claimed that of those who crossed tlie Cauto with Modesto Diaz but 200 are left. From Trinidad we learn o' the arrest ot a considerable number of individuals owing to tiie declarations of a negro. It was thought these constituted a junta who were constantly furnishing the insurgents munitions and supplies.

The negro had been captured with a letter on his person addressed to an iiisurrect called Leandro, and apparently written by a woman. It was thought tne negro knew much more than he would toil, as he feared the Uborantes. Probably the thing will ultimately result in a wholesale shooting. Colonel Fortnn, from Remedies, telegraphs that confidence is completely restored in that jurisdiction, and the persecution of the insurgent continues. Several encounters are reported from Sania Clara, In Santi Espintn D.

Jose Maria Floueruo Cuuuarsis and D. Gonzales have been shot for disloyalty. A number of encounters are mentioned in the jurisdiction. Private accounts report that the fight on. the Macio in Bayamo, was one of the most irercely contested and bloody since the defeat of Puelio on the 1st of January.

The loss on both sides is placed at 853. Ac eight o'clock on the morning of Tuesday in tne Cauauas JFeruaudo Rodriguez, a mulatto TMa shot for the crime of disloyalty. For some reason the Dnttca states Consulate or Commercial Agoncy at Csusarien, a port oa th2 north coasc 01 tills Island, has oeen withdrawn, aud the American citizens iesideut there are end-avor- ingto bring about its re-estnbiishment This was opposed by Mr. Edward L. Plumb, wno preceded Biddle, tna present Consul General in this city, and who seemed f) know as little of the commercial necessities of American citizens in the island as of the insurrection, and to uare a great deal less.

in their communication to the Secretary of State the Americans theie renraseat that the Consulate is ne- lor the suflioient protection of the soamea of American vessels in as well as of those of wrecked vessels, as the greater portion, of those who go ashore on the nortn side do so in the immediate vicinity of that place. Moreover, it is required for the assistance to American musters in treating with the marine and civil autfturities. Secondly, for the ceruticatiun of landing debentures and the ooscrvances of such other precautions, as are nece-sary for the protection of the United Stales revenue 0:1 goods shipped cence iroin is.nnu. Attention is called to the lact that the amount of American interest invested ia that jurisdiction is Eecond in the inland only to Havana, and reach Irani two and a-nah' to three millions of dollars.

Tne communication is signed by all the principal merchants in town. This matter has been treated by the administration wlm that extreme carelessness and indifference in reference American commerce and interests abroad which has always characterized It and for which, as lar as the intlueuce of Americans in foreign coiintrfea extends, it. will be held accountable.

Lawrence Foulkos, loot of Kortn Fifth street, Willlamsbnrg. About 1,000 persons witnessed the launch, all of whom manifested the Keenest interest the proceedings. Upon the deck of the able and jaunty craft many ladles of beauty and fashion were conspicuous, who, mingling in the pleasure of tne moment, added a zest to the occasion that it would otherwise have materially lacked. When the word was given to knock away the blocks excitement rau high, aud during this and other preliminaries, despite the, character of tbe weather, the picture, was fit for an artist's hand. Soon she settled on ner ways, the final blow was given, and slowly, proudly, gracefully and beautifully the James Gordon Bennett began her seaward motion.

Cheer upon cheer rent the air as she touched the water and the moment before 1 she became erect, disclosing her able and artistic form, Miss Katie Chapman, the accomplished daughter of Captain Chapman, of the boar, with all, tne usual attending circumstances, gave the craft her name. In the yard and on the boatwere representatives from nearly all the pilot boats of tne port, while many of the company owning the James Gordon Bennett had their families present, while a number of prominent journalists and merchants ai'lea in wishing the latest venture of tae galiant pilots success and prosperity. This pilot boat was constructed to rerilp.ee the boat, A. T. Stewart, lost last winter, during a terrible itorm, near tne Highlands.
