PROGNOSTICATIONS OF THE WEATHER (from Robert Merry's Museum, November 1844, pp. 154-159)

Asses.--When asses bray more than ordinary, particularly if they shake their ears if uneasy, it is said they predict rain, and particularly showers. We have noticed, that, in showery weather, a donkey, confined in a yard near the house, has brayed before every shower, and generally some minutes before the rain has fallen, as if some electrical influence, produced by the concentrating power of the approaching rain-cloud, caused a tickling in the windpipe of the animal, just before the shower came up. Whatever this electric state of the air preceding a shower may be, it seems to be the same that causes in other animals some peculiar sensations,--which makes the peacock squall the pintado call "come-back," and which creates a variety of prognosticative motions in the different species of the animal kingdom.

An expressive English adage says,

When the ass begins to bray,
Be sure we shall have rain that day.

We have, says the writer of the preceding, repeatedly been able to give our hay-makers useful admonitions founded solely on the braying of the ass. Thus the proverb says truly,

'T is time to cock your hay and corn
When the old donkey blows his horn.
