ANOTHER HEN STORY. This one is true,
as it is told Ms by lady in town. A ma
tronly-looking hen has been setting on
quite a large number of eggs, and the time
for Matching was at hand-in fact the ar
rival Of the chickens was almost daily
expected. One day this week the hen en-
tered the house of her owner, the lady
who is our informant, with an air Of ex-
element and bewilderment plainly indi-
cative Of some great wrong inflicted upon
her. Her feathers were ruflled, her eye
cleaning with mingled anger and inquiry,
and her whole body expanded. Thinking
something must be wrong at the hens
nest, the lady determined to investigate.
As she started from the house, the hen got
in front Of her, and with much noise and
hustle led the way TO the nest. Not an
egg was to be seen, aud the explanation
was soon recognized by the lady in the
proximity Of large rat hole to the nest.
The lady describes the pathetic glances
and cacklings Of the poor childless old
hen, as she looked into the empty nest,
and wondered who could have robbed her
Of her promised brood.
Now this hen-stOry is not quite 30 dra-
matte perhaps as Abe Miller's, but it has
one great advantage in the indsputable
veracity Of its author Abe ought to bring
bis hen to town on court day and put her
in as evidence Of the truth Of his story.

ISTo THE FoRT.-A representative OF
the HERALD one day las, week, accom-
panied Dr. Carter on a visit to a patient
living in the Fort and at least eleven miles
from Woodstock. Despite the constantly
recurring showers and the ugly condition
Of the roads along much Of the route, the
Doctors big bay mare, fine representa-
tive Of his excellent stables, carried a
heavy load Of human avoirdupois ileetly
and without labor or signs Of distress,
over the aggregate of twenty-five miles.
Though the day was so forbidding the
view from the mountain top Of Wood
stock and vicinity was yet enchanting, as
it revealed one of the most beautiful
streams in all America meanderng like a
silver thread through the vast expanse Of
emerald. How pardonabe and how be-
coming the local pride of Virginians rear
ed amid such scenery, imperiously grand
and yet softly Arcadian in itself, Opulent
with splendid historic associations, and
sweetly suggestive Of fond Renaissance,
as
From the session of sweet, silent, thought
We summon up remembrance Of past
times"
In the Fort, the woods and fields were
poured upon by the weeping clouds, and
until the return-trip, when the rain ceas-
ed, there was less invitation to dwell up
on tho beauties Of nature in the Fort,
than of desire TO mako Doctor Carriers
water-proofs keep the party dry. Other
wise both the Doctor and his companion
were already dry enough, as both being
votaries Of Temperance, they had ipten-
tionally avoided any supply Of "wet
grOceries.7
The Doctors patient was member Of
Mr.. Coyerstone's family, and on that
gentleman's comfortable and well-equipped
place there was every sign Of thrift and
plenty. Stopping at Mr.. Boyer's for few
moments conversation with that worthy
type Of the successful Virginia farm er, the
visitors greatly. enjoyed view of Mr..
Boyer's fine display of stock and poultry.
Contentment evidently follows industry
and thrift in such section Of country as
the Fort, from whose delightful pastoral
surroundings, no woolngs to the great
and growing west" would ever tempt DR..
Carter and his companion in last weeks
ride behind the fleet and sure.footed
"Mollie," if each of them owned farm
