From the Springfield ill.) journal, Dec. l6.
For months this section of the state
has been suffering from the effects of
the long and continued drouth. Farm
ers are actually hauling water for miles
with which to water stock, (cattie, &c,
not railroads,) and the supply upon
which they depended is nearly exhaust
ed and still no rain. In our city nearly
every cistern and well is as dry as a
well regulated powder-fask our whole
dependence is upon the water furnished
by our system Of water works, which
will be reliable until Sangamon River
follows the prevailing style and dries
