' 1 ; We are requested to announce, that thetime appointed for the meeting of farmers lo discuss the fence law ques tion, has been changed again. , It will be remembered that the 1st of January was the"day originally appointed, but the bad weather prevented the farmers from attending at tht time, and it was agreed to meet on the 20th.' This again was considered too far off and it was determined to hold the meeting on Thursday, the 12th, when .it is hoped that there will be a full atten dance. "The Dtmocrat and Home are requested to note-tbe change. Jurors Drawn.

Governor Vance Contradlcting-Judge ; Mackey. . r . .The assertion reported to have been made by T J Mackey that Gov Vance had said that he believed Hayes ito Rave been fairly elected,! was contra dicted in this paper yesterday on the assurance of gentlemen who heard the conversation between the two gentle men on- Christmas; day,, when ; Judge Mackey was in' the city. . As a further confirmation of this, if any need be, the New York" Sun of the 2d,: says : - , f'A dispatcK was received yesterday at the headquarters of the Democratic National Committee, in this city, from Gen W R Cov Chairman of thet Demo cratic State Committee of North. Caro lina; " contradicting in the most posi tive1 manner the 'statement made by Judge Mackey in his interview with a Herald - correspondent 4 at v. Columbus, published on Saturday last. Gov Vance, at whose request the telegram is sent, etates positively that he has never: had axloubt of-Mr Tilden s. election, nor , of hi3 inauguration. He expresses sur iorlse at the statement which Judge Mpckey is alledged to have made, as no conversation has ever tak ens place,, be tween them that .could in the remotest degree 'convey to him such opinions as he alleges irr his interview." Gas or Kerosene? , i : , ; One of the pri ncipal subjects of street corner, discUfcsion' nbw is that of light ing the.city with kerosene lamps. sr The pros and cons are presented with' much animation, v One party ? will : say that these j are" hard ? time v and the less moheV that is spent hy'.the city the better that .people have no business riinnin? about of nizhts any way: let them stay; at home like he does; a,nd they'll not need any lights at all. We were t too proud any how better- he glad we had meat and bread to eati XULd ;18 ; geilcraiij' ; Dam jj u xiwj man. i - T - Others will say: it's a mighty sorry little , town, that has to use' littler tin lamps that' only make J the' darkness visible. "Better have no lights at all. Retrenchment and. "reform is a very good thing in its" way, but, like ' every thing else that's good, can be easily run into thegrpund. ..It's a mighty strange thing, tod, that when; gas was $8 and $10 a thousand, the' streets were lighted with it eyery- night, but now; when-h's only $4, they won't use it; 'Another thing they'll have, to hire a dozen meatbhelp the police fill the lamps and keep them in order; ' And there it goes. . Kerosene ejrgas is the-great question of the hour, in comparison with vwhicli- the present great question as -to " who r is to be our next President pales into, utter insig nificance. "" - : ' Before the IMayor. ; A man by; the name of Scott who lives in Gaston, and is a writing master by profession, was up before the Mayor for drunkenness and-general nuisance yesterday morning. He was fined $5 and commanded to -leave the city at toe earnest possioie moment, under penalty of further punishment. He has been lying around, here for a week or more. - - . r -y r- Old Aunt Abby House A : aln. -. - Oine of the most amusing incidents connected with' the inauguration, oc curred the depot upon the arrival of Gov Vance and his special escort. , Old Aunt Abby House was there waiting and seized the Governor as soon as he alighted from the train." She .was not satisfied with giving him a moderate amount of hugging and blessing, but it was with the greatest difficulty that she eould be kept from riding in -the Gov ernor's lap during the procession.
