An ltalian writer on the catastrophe
on the is] land Ischia mentions those prog
nostics of an earthquake which are derived
from animals, They were observed evry
place where the shock was such as tobe
generaly perceptible, Some minutes be-
fore they were felt, the oxen snd cows be
gan to bellow, the sheep and goats bleated,
and rushing in confusion one on the other,
tried to break the wicker work of the
folds; the dogs bowied terribly, the geese
and fowls were alarmed, and made much
noise; the horses which were fastened in
their stalls were greatly agitated, leaped
up, and tried to break the halters with
which they were attatched to the mans
gers; those which proceeded on tho roads
suddenly stoped* and snorted in « strange
way. The cats were frightened, and tried
to conceal themselves, or their hair bri
tied up wildly. Rabbits and moles were
snen to leave their holes; birds rese, as if
scared, from tha places on which they had
al ighted ; and fish left the botlom of the
sea snd approached the shores, where at
some places grest numbers of thetn wers
taken, Even antesnd reptiles abandoned,
ear daylight. their subterranean holes
in great disorder, many hours before Lhe
shocks ware felt. Some do¥s, & fow mins
ules before the first shock teok place,
awoke their sleeping masters by barking
and pulliog them, as if they wished to
warn them of the impending danger, and
several persons were thus enabled to save
themselves.
