From the Pacific News, May Is.
Commercial and Financial Affairs.

Until the disastrous fire of the 4th instant, bust
ness improved rapidly. Purchasers from the sur
rounding country were buying 10 a considerable
extent, and staple marketable articles found ready
sale. Flour had advanced in price, and remained
firm with an upward tendency. Money was de-
clining from previous high rates of interest, and
loans offered, where securities were undoubted,
as low as six per cent. per month. The lumber
market was almost entirely inactive, trade sales
rare, and forced sales for payment of freight the
only transactions of moment The cargo Of the
Susan Dove sold just previous to the fire, averaged
$40 per M; and although the lumber was partly of
improved kinds, and comprised some houses, the
sales was generally considered an advance upon
previous rates.
The occurrence Of the fire completely suspended
business operations for one day, and partially
checked them for two or three days; subsequently,
and during the whole following week, with some
exceptions, it's depressing influence upon the
market and business matters, has been apparent.
Holders of money Immediately claimed advanced
rates Of Interest," holders Of real estate in business
locations, advanced rents, and valuation; prices
Of lumber from the yards advanced 100 per cent,
and of bricks and some other building materials
in about the same proportion. These advances
have not all been sustained. Capitalists have
fallen back from rates Of interests first claimed,
the fire having curtailed many opportunities OF
investment upon securities before considered UNI
doubted.

Telegraphed to the .Ns,c York Herald.
The Great Telegraph Case.
BosroN, June "a, Is


F. o. ]. SMITH VS.. HUGH DOWNING AND OTHERS.
This trial, previously noticed, has now occu-
pied the attention of the United States District
Court for the Eastern Division Of Massachusetts,
for nearly week. Hon. Levi Woodbury., Of
the Supreme Court, presides.
The action on the part of the plaintiff consists
in an application to the Court for an injunction
against the defendants, for using Houses printing
telegraph, which is claimed to be an infringement
of Morse patent.
Chas. l.. Woodbury., Esq, opened the case for
the defence in an able and ingenious argument,
adducing the testimony Of various scientific men,
well versed in electrical sciences, to prove that
Morse s claim, in his patent, was too broad, and
included things previously discovered by others;
and in no respect did the invention Of Mr. House
infringe or interfere in the slightest degree, with
Professor Morse's invention Of his telegraph ma
chine.
Mr.. Woodbury. was succeeded by Mr. Clifford,
of New York, on the same side, who has con-
sumed the best part of four days in a very
able and argumentative speech. He has gone
deliberately into the whole history Of electrical dis
coveries having bearing upon telegraphs--show-
ing whatprogress had been made in Germany, and
other parts Of Europe, prior to Morse's first sug-
gestion on the subject; lie also adduced the
evidence of Professors Henry, Renwick, Jackson,
Silliman, and other scientific men, which he said
proved what Morse could claim and could not
claim. He said that Houses instrument entirely
differed from Morse 's-that it interfered with no
principle, or parts, part of apparatus to which
Morse was justly entitled. He also went into
careful and minute analysica descriptions of the
two machines to show that Houses was organ
lied and worked in separate and distinct manner
from that Of Morse. He commended that electo-
magnetic motion was motive power discovered
before Morse ever thought Of telegraphs, and that
he could not make it the subject Of patent. He
then went into an able and mastery review of
Morse's old patent, and of his celebrated reissue,
and endeavored from the documents themselves,
to show their weakness and nvalidity. The
whole speech would amply repay perusal.
Mr.. Clifford will probably close to-day. He
will be followed tomorrow by the Hon. Rufus
Choate, for defendants. After whom the counsel
for plaintiff will be heard, viz: +. 0. j. Smith,
and r. B. Curtis, Esqrs.

The Asiatic Trade.

Already do we hear OF enterprisng shippers
intending the establishment of steamers between
This port and Canton, via. Honolulu; and notless
than six large vessels are expected daily IN our
larbor, freighted with the rich manufactures of
The Celestial world. The rapid sales and high
prices which consignees meet with on the part of
purchasers for these rich fabrics, will undoubtedly
induce other capitalists to enter largely into the
trade, and, SO far as we can see, with but little
risk.
The arrival Of two or three vessels from Can
ton in the port of New York, laden were the
vessels which have arrived here within the past
two weeks, would have produced a plethora IN
The market which would have lasted for several
months here it has had contrary effect, and
las but served to create purchasers and stimulate
prices. In New York and other Atlantic cities,
there are but few of the entire population who
IAN possibly afford to purchase; whereas on the
Pacific coast, nine out Of every ten are not only
able but exceedingly anxious to procure the luxu-
rious and costly articles imported.
moi less than one hundred thousand dollars
have been expended by persons in this city,
within the last two three weeks, for presents to
friends on the Atlantic borders, who, before their
arrival here; would never have dreamt of buying
such costly articles of furniture or apparel. As
our population increases andt he resources of the
country are developed-as our people shall cease
to be homemade in their habits, the wealth concen-
rating here will be sufficient to carry on proha-
bly, and successfully trade with Canton and
other Asiatic ports, that shall put to blush the OPP
erations heretofore carried on by the East India
Company. This trade must concentrate here, to
be radiated hence through the channels OF trade
10 the great marts Of the Eastern world.
To secure this trade the more effectually, and
to find a permanent outlet for it through our own
domains; our merchants and capitalists should at
once cooperate with those gentlemen, who, in the
Western and Eastern States, are advocating so
warmly and periodically the practicability and
~ tcLas ,oP x,rhich
this trade may flow, supplying not only our own
cities and towns, but the depots Of the European
continent. A public expression in this quarter
from our mercantile class would have a desirable
effect and influence on those who now doubt the
practicability, although admitting the necessity,
of building a railroad such as is contemplated by
our brethren ON the Atlantic side.--Pactfc Neps,
May A.

Letter Of the late John G. Calhoun.

We regret the necessity Of again abiding
to this letter but the fGAwing duplicate Of
a letter to the g SouthWon," from Hon. d.
Wallace Of South Carolina, renders it neces-
sary. The Submissionists have never been
sincere in their labored attempts to connect
Mr. Cahoun's name with the October Con-
vention. No member Of that convention
has done, or ever will do it. The charge is
false, and malicious as it is false.
But we will here state, that the name Of
The illustrious Carolnian would not have
lmmed the lustre Of the history Of the Oc-
tober Convention, nor would it have cooled
the ardor or abated the enthusiasm of oul
sons in its support. Well might it have been
his act, for it would have hereafter shone out
the brightest star in deathless fame.
We take pleasure in saying that our ac-
quaintance with Mr. Wallace, while sojourn-
ing here, justifes the belief that he is a
high toned and worthy gentleman, and we
shall always be pleased to show him the hos
pitalities of our state. Jackson Mississip-
plan.

WASHINGTON, d. c., June a, 1850.
To the Editor Of the "Southron," Jackson, .uisss-
sppi.
Sir-In your paper of the Gath ultimo, you have
given to the public AN article under the caption
!" Letter of Hon. John G.. Calhoun" in which
you have introduced my name to your readers, in
terms not very remarkable for decorum.
l learn from the number of your paper referred
to- that you charge interference on the part of Mr.
Calhoun, to influence the deliberations Of the con.
vention of the people of Mississippi, which as
sembled at Jackson in October last and that
attended that convention as the agent of South
Carolina, or Of Mr.. Calhoun, to influence its de-
alterations in person, with view to procure such
action as might result in general convention OF
the Southern States. You were pleased in the
the same connection, to allude to a speech which
lately made in Congress, as being ultra, etc.
Now, upon all these subjects you are certainly
at liberty to entertain your own opinions You
may form what opinions you think proper, in re-
gard to myself--my speeches in out of Con-
gress--and be they favorable or unfavorable,
shall not sleep the less sound on that account.
You may promuge federal doctrines as much
you please, and cringe under the crack Of the
Northern whip as long as you please. All this is
no business of mine. But when you charge that
my visit to Jackson, Mississippi, in October last,
was coupled with an intention or desire TO infu-
ence the deliberations of the convention, then and
there met, respect for the people of Mississippi,
as well as myself, requires that should make a
proper response to the gratuitous and unfounded
charges.
| now state, without qualification, that never
did, at any time in my life, hold any conversation
with Mr. Calhoun on the subject Of the Jackson
Convention, or the Nashville Convention, until
after the meeting Of the present Congress in De-
cember last, and then tie first had met and ad.
journed, and the last was already called. And
state, further that message, either verbal or ~
writing, ever passed between Mr.. Calhoun ana
myself upon the subject Of either Of the SAID con,
ventions, and that every charge, allegation, ana
inuendo, which have been Illuminated by me par
ty presses in reference to my connection with the
Mississippi and Nashville conventions, are utterly
filse and untomnded.
Will YOU, sir, as an act Of justice, publish this
reply TO your charge against mef
l am, sir, with due respect,
Your most obedient servant
d. WALLACE.
