Of Jackson county, Mo-, have warned the Minis
ters of the Methodist Church North not to hold

pockets abound on the Fair Grounds; and we per-
ceive by the Cleveland papers that some Of the
same class of gentry hare been amusing them
selves while en- route tsihe Fair, by sundry burg,
larious attempts upon residences in that city.
These gatherings attract such rogues from great
distance; and as, possibly, some of them may pay

FUSION IN MARYLAND.-Hon. Mr.. Pratt, Ex
Senator from Maryland, has issued circular let
ter in favor of a new political party, to be made
up of the conservative members of all others. 1t
appears ttha this is not done on his own respon-

er, made public for the first time A State tick

of the same thing in other Southern State as well
