That the nearer the time of the Moon's change, First Quarter, Full, and Last Quarter, is to Midui(jht^t\\Q fairer will the weather be durin*^- the seven days following; the space for this calculation occupies from ten at night till two next morning'. 2. — Tliat tlie nearer to Mid-da?/, or Noon, these phases of the moon happen, the more foul or wet the weather may be expected during the next seven days ; the space for this calculation occupies from ten in the forenoon to two in the afternoon. These observations refer princi- pally to summer, though they aifect spring and autumn to a considerable extent. 3. — Thnt the Moon's Change, First Quarter, Full, and Last Quarter, happening during six of the afternoon hours, i. e. from four to ten, may be followed by fair weather ; but this is mostly dependent on the windf as it is noted in the table. Though the weather is more uncertain in the latter part of autumn, the whole of winter, and the beginning of spring ; yet, in the main, the above observations will apply to those periods also. lifloon'a lliging anU Setting.
