Present Prices—Money and the Weather—Tho Holiday Senson. During the past week there has not been any great change in any branch of the provision market, Tho amount of business transacted has been small, far less than at the same time last year. The scarcity of cir- culating money is complained of by tho large dealers, who have pow mostly made up their minds to do only a small business during the winter season. Prices gener- ally tend downward—a fact not as readily acknowledged by the retail dealers as by the wholesale dealors, In the large markets fluctuating prices are more peroepti- ble, but the shopkeepers of the streots and avenues are slow to perceive the change, and slower still to make the acknowledgment to their customers. As before stated, these small retail dealors in meats, vegetables ‘and groceries lose ices than any other class by dull times and a scarcity of money. Some people know this, and those who cap buy direct from wholesale dealers, Evory day the retail trade of the large markets imereases, and also the wholesale trade of the same mar- kets, There are many families large enough to consume a barrel of flour, potatoes, apples, or quarter of beef or entire sheep before the same can spoll, and many do this, thereby saving many dollars. The wintertime is partica- larly favorable to buying by the quantity, and now, when money and employment are both scarce, such a course is advisable for all who can pursue it. At any rate the poor class of consumers should give their butchers and grocers to understand that when they pay cash for pro- visions they will not pay an advance of eight or ten cents per pound on meat, and in proportion for other articles, Whon times are hard there is no necessity of making them harder by avarice, as some of the class | allufted todo, There are exceptiona to this course, and for such these remark are not intended; but tho great mass of small dealers are now complaining of hard timed, and are at the same time fairly cor unfairly) ‘piling up the stamps’’ at the expense of the poor. The mass of the people should post themselves as to the wholesale and retail prices of the metropolis, make a reasonable Fz er ep Ch rote ngs Basr —There isa fine lot of Christmas beef in mar- Ket, which has been offered at 160. a 180. per Ib., by the carcass, bids fair te sell for that price or less, by the side, if the weather continues warm.

Troy, Dea, 21, 1867. Accounts of the recent earthquake throughout por- tions of Carada, Vermont, norinern and middle New York and elsewhore continue to reach mo, The shock was experienced at Syracuse, as well as throughout the county in which that city is situated, at ten minutes past threo o'clock on the morning of the 18th inst., and ‘was 80 Violent as to arouse a largo number of citizens and their families, and lasting for a period of betweon one and three minutes, this point boing various!y estimated. The beds whereon those disturbed by tho upbeavul of the carth restod are represented as being gently, but decidedly, shaken up and swayed to and fro, tho sensation as a whole being like the rolling of waves from the south to the north, At Syracuse Very little if any noise accompanied the mighty earth effort, other than tho rattling of fragile window panes and the jostling disturbance of crockery in households, In several instances, it is siated, where persons, nurses and others, were up im attendance at sick bedsides, the ebock caused torrible apprehensions; among others that the houses were about to fall in and tumble down, Everywhere about the Salt City window sashes, fur- niture of all kinds, and indeed all movable and port- able property, as well as a very large portion of the itanis, Were considerably disturbed physically and vastly exercised meniaily by reason of the shaking up of the foundations of things, fow, tf any, of the people go shocked finding sleep again for the night, The earliest throes of the earth were vibratory and most =, the subsequent ones gradually diminishing in force, At is now remembered that a slight shock of an earth- quake was felt and reported in Onondaga county some- thing like about a month since, but little or ne notice was takon of it at the time, the nature and full force of the upheaval not being then in any moasure whatever realized. A little daughter of the editor ot one of the vase journals, aged nine years, asked her parents next morning at ¢he breakfast table, ‘‘ What mado the house shake so ia tho night? It woke me up." At Rutland, Vt., the shock was very sensibly felt at the same hour appareatiy as at Syracuse, and lasted for a minute aud a half. Persons were suddenly awakened in bod, and bewildered by the concus-ion moted the samo accompanimenta as seomied to have marked the starting event clsawhere throughout the belt of coun 7. reported to have been allected by it, The violent effort of nature was also experienced at Brandon, the birinplace of stephen A. Douglas, and at Middlebury, the seat of Middiebury College, as well as in various other portions of the state, laciuding Wood- stock, Brattleboro and Montpelier, the capital of Ver- mont. The earthquake was felt at the town of Coponhagen, in Lewis county, N. Y., at three o’ciock A. M., and lasted between one and two minutes. At this point it m reported to have commenced with grest suddenness, sounding like the approach of a heavy lumber wagon at the front door of @ house on frozen ground or pave- ment: ‘This noise kept on increasing in volume until the houses coomed to vibrate and sensibly tremble. Tables were turned over by seemingly vViotente, aod doors thrown open by the same agency, ‘Tho night was clear, there being both profuse star and moon! gb the thermometer at zero and the baromoter 25.50. At tast the noise began to subside, and as it did so it was very apparent that the convulsions proceeded from the bowels of the earth.

The length of tho barre! is thirty- seven and three-fourths inches, and its calibre .58. It te adapted to the use of the rim fire car- tridges, and the weight of the entire arm, when complete, is nine pounds and thirteen ounces. For con- version the barrel of the original piece is cut off in front of the breech pin and screwed into a re- ceiver. In the receiver works the breech block, which moves upon the recoil seat by means of a shoulder, the seat being semi-cylindrical, and the shoulder fitting it- The breech block extends back over the neck of the stock, forming a lever by which the block is depressed to open the breech or raised to close it, the lover having reversed motions. To the back ond of thie lever is attached a finger-piece and catch, which, when the breech is closed, locks It securely, The breech block is hollowed out spoonlike on its top, to guide the cariridge in loading, and its face is composed of a steel plate, which presses against the cartridge and Second— sixty grains of fine rifle powder, and soventy grains of lead, it penetrated ifteen boards and struck the iron ved beyond.
