THE Pork MARKET.-The Louisville Jour-
nal OF Tuesday last thus speaks Of the pork
business at that point:
"During the summer contracts were made
at figures which cannot now be obtained.
The heavy stocks of old provisions on hand
in the West as well as the East, and the dull
ness Of the European markets, which have
been so much overstocked that purchases
made here by the French Government last
fall for the use of her army have been actu-
ally returned to find market in this country,
have thrown damper on prices. Last year
the markets were almost bare of stock, with
war in Europe when the season commenced;
this year they are overstocked. Competition
last year ran prices up to high figure, and
most Of the operators suffered. Experience
has taught them lesson. Packers here, as
well as at other points, are determined not to
be allured again in that way. The prevail
ing rates at present are rs 80 a IS IS nett
the outside price is usually paid by porkhouse
owners to secure the killing. The market is
steady at these figures, as but few have yet
come in"

survey Of the Okefenokce Swamp, for the
purpose of determining, among other things,
the feasibility ofdraining il, and thus prepar-
ing the way for its sale and cultivation. This
great marshy tract contains about half mil
lion acres. as many suppose, Of the richest
soil in the State. An engineer Of Milledgc-
vile Of great experience, has been selected
BY the Governor 10 make the survey, which
will be commenced Immediately. Should the
exploration prove as successful as anticipated
a splendid territory will be added to the State

VALUABLE MIxE.-Mr. A. c. Webster.
living on the old road TO Hackcnsack, about
mile from the New York turnpike, and two
miles from the Passaic Bridge, East Newark,
some two years ago discovered on his prop
erty peculiar rock, which was found very
useful Tor making paint, and il led TO the for
nation Of manufacturing company which
purchased the land from MFR. w. for $3.50,
600. They continued selling the land for
iertilizing purposes, until recently. when il
was discovered that the stone contained about
four per cent. Of nickel, and also large
proportion Of oxide of lime and cobalt, and a
small portion Of silver, which parties in Eu-
rope had known for long time, and had
been purchasing the rock al sl5 per ton for
the purpose Of extracting these valuable sub
stances. A steam mill was recently erected
for the purpose Of grinding the rock into
powder, and about twenty men are constant
" employed, who turn out from 500 TO 400
barrels d week, each barrel weighing 400
pounds. This is the second and richest dis
coyery Of nickel in the United States. and
promises to be very profitable, the mine being
estimated to be worth millions Of dollars.

QUAKE IN THE MEDTERRASEAN.--Acco
from the Mediterranean state that the shock
Of the earthquake so generally felt at and 10
the eastward Of Malta, on the morning Of the
18th Of October, seems to have been more
violent at Gambia than at any other place,
upwards Of five hundred persons having been
buried in the ruins, principally in the villages.
In the island OF Rhodes mountains have fallen
down into the plains beneath, entire villages
have been destroyed, and not house in town
has escaped damage. The loss Of life is said
TO amount to some one hundred souls. On
the islands Of Hslki, Csssos, and Scarpento
the damages were very considerable, and the
victims amount to one hundred and fifty.
Marmarizzo, Daliani, and neighboring villages
have Likewise suffered but at Adm, where
its duration was fifty seconds, and at Myte>
lcne, The damage was triiling, while at Bey-
rOut the shock was very slight. Letters from
Trebizond do not make mention Of il at all.

A dispatch from Constantmople states that
the Persians had been repulsed near Eerat
with heavy loss.
The English Ministerial papers assert that
the alliance between France England is as
close and cordial as ever, and that it has not
been shaken or impaired.
A registrar Of the Northern railway had
absconded, being deiaulter to the amount
Of e $50, 900.
Advices from Paris are less discouraging.
It is reported that the Bank Of France was
beginning to regain specie.
Louis Napoleon was still at Paris. The
Russian Ambassador had been cordially re-
ceived. 1t is rumored that Louis Napoleon
was more favorable to suspension OF specie
payment by the Bank Of France.
The amount of bullion had decreased in
the Bank Of France three millions Of francs,
A severe gale occurred at Liverpool on the
10Th November, and did much damage. The
