Singular Freuk of Lightning.

On Wednesday last. during n severe
thunder storm, the lightning struck
number of trees on the premises of Mr..
Lewis Frees, Charlestown township,
Chester county. Under one of these, II
cherry tree. three guinea hens had
sought shelter. After the storm had
cleared away two of these were found
lying dead. with not the yestige of
a feather on their bodies, while the
third had about one.half its feathers
torn off. The latter finally recovered
and presented strange appearance
while walking about in a semi'nude
state. After striking the fowls the elcc.
tricity separated in three parts, each
going in different directions, as shown
10y the feathers which were carried for
some distance in its tracks. Another
singular circumstances was that there
were no marks upon the bodies of any
of the hens showing that they had
been struck by the lightning.
