The receipts of grain in this city to-day
were fair for reiny weather. About 800
bushels of oats came in by wagon, 800 BUSH
els of wheat and between 300 and 400 bush,
els of corn. By rail three cars OF oats and
car of corn were received. Two cars oil
oats were sent out of the city, and some
heavy orders we're received, which will be
forwarded in a day or two. The grain mar
ket is opening most propitiously Tor Dallas,
and the prospects now are that she VIII re-
ceiye double the amount which sought this
