Killed by lightning in winter.

--On the 16th instant, the barn of James Horner, of Warwick, Bucks county, Pa., was struck by lightning during a thunder storm, and two valuable cows killed. There were eleven cows in the stable, but only the two injured. It is rather uncommon to hear of such damage by lightning in midwinter, and the ground covered with snow, as on this occasion.
