ago on Long Island where they lived aud bred in the
groves around Greenwood. They have, however, all
disappeared, having fallen probably victims to those
desIoyers of little birds who intes the neighbor-
hood of this city, Long Island Staten Island and West
chester County.
In 1853 John Gorgas, of Wilmington, Delaware,
imported seventy-fye English skylarks, which he set
at liberty in Newcastle Co.. where portion of them

their music and curious habits But he fears that they
have all since perished VIII any one inform him or
us whether his fears are correct or mott Possibly they
are colonized in some of the adjoining States. To
enable any one to know them, we append the follow

THE CUsroDY OF ISFAsTs.-Among the decisions
Of the recent General Term of the Supreme Court is
one reversing the proceed gs and order of the County
Judge Of Kings County in the matter of the People on
the relation of the Brooklyn Industrial School Associa-
ton against Thomas Keamey. Keaney is grandfather
on the mothers side, of two infants, named Lafiiin
girls. The father died about two years ago. short
time before his death he signed his name to document
giving the children in charge of the Industrial School
Association. The grandfather claimed their custody
some time after the fathers death, and Judge Morris
then County judge decided that he was their proper
custodian. The children were given up to him. The
order is now reversed with costs.

CAvIsG liz OF A SEWER, AND BURSTING OF A
W.TyR.MAIs-The heavy shower on Saturday
evening caused good deal of damage along the line Of
tho sewer in process of construction in Hicks street.
from Cranberry to Fulton street. The whole distance
had been excavated and the lower portion secured by
pankipQ so as to prevent the sides from caving IN ana
thereby protecting the laborer, from injury lne con-
nection with the main sewer in Fulton street had peen
completed and the work was being extended up 'he
street as rapidly as possible when the heavy shower
ovt rfoode the excavation, and, washing out he"'y
stones the waerpipe was moved out OF position ana
fractured in two places. The heavy body oil wafer
from the hill had already overlooked the lower part oi
the street. and with the tremendous force OF that issu-
ing from the pipes, placed the neghborng buildings In
jeopardy.
The cellars in the vicinity were all filed mp 10 tne
floors, causing great damage to the contents-that
under Daviss liquor store completely flooded, and
lad the force of the water continued undated little
longer than it did, the foundation of the building must
certainly have given way. The open connection with
q main sewer took off large body of water, and
TINS much injury was averted. The contractor the
sewer Mr. Diljn did all in bis power to prevent fur
Their mischief, and eventually succeeded. The water
in the pipes having been shut off as speedily as pos
sible the work of repairing was Immediately COM
menced and completed during the night The street
washed away the curb in several places, and all the
lower portion Of the original excavation il filled up
Workmen engaged all day yesterday in clearing
away tie rubbish. The sewer is of brick. Over one
hundred feet had already been constructed. The loss
will be heavy one 10 the contractor.
