The Great Drouth.

A correspondent of the Amenia (N. Times says: The great drouth of l845 was the most memorable of any on record. There was no rainy day or rainy night from winter until the latter part of August. On the 9th of June the thexmorneter registered 95 degrees. All the fields V ere dried up and looked red. Many small streams were dried mp for several weeks, which hal never been known before to cease to flow. My farm notes say that on the old plain there were six loads of hay where the year before there were twenty six loads. This was dry land. The river mead ows were less affected. The whole hay crop was only about half what 1t was the preceding year. The drouth was very widely extended over the country. The anxiety of the people was manifest ed in their countenances. August 22d there was g rain and the country soon resumed a favorable aspect and the people were relieved.
