The libraries have to be in your Java's classpath not in MySQL's bin directory.

You can try calling it with:

java -cp /path/to/mysql-connector-java-5.1.13-bin.jar myPackage.MyProgram

I suggest you group your JAR dependencies under an adjacent lib folder and set that as your classpath. Will keep libraries in one place and make it easier to distribute and run the software.
