GRAIN MARKET. BY reference to the re-
port of our market, Carefully revised aud cor
rected every other day. it will be seen that
there has been great activity in the grain trade
during the week just closieg, and that the prices
paid here compare most fayorably with those
obtained:inathe larger cities with which Alex
andria is in direct competition. The receipts Of
grain have increased materially in consequence
Of the rc-opening. of the Manassas Gap Rail,
aroad to Piedmont, from whence large quaint
ties Of corn and other produce kept back for
want of transportation, are now flowing 10 and
fnd q ready market: The favorable results Of
the re, opening of this road tor a comparatively
short distance, are but an index Of the great
benefits to accrue to our city when it shall have
been rebuilt and reach the heart Of the Valley
of Virginia. -5:1'''
