Paph in dirt ?

I've just received a Paph. in the mail today and it came in this wet and loose potting medium that looks a lot like soil ( very fine and very black ) What is it ? I think I'm seeing a spike beginning to push through the crown. Should I leave it be or repot it ? For now I just threw on some fine bark on the top of the medium hopefully to absorb some of the wetness . The plant looks super healthy, just don't know if it's a good idea to leave it in the mix that is very slow to dry out or give it a fresh one now. Any idea ?
