ENGLISH spARRoWs GOING.

1t is remarked that the English
sparrows, which were introduced into
indianapolis about forty years ago,
end which for several years multiplied
prOdigiously. are now lessening in
Plumbers. This is not only true Of
these birds in this city, but along the
country roads, where they were once
numerous. It is said that the rigors
Of our winters have been too great
even for these tough little Britons,
ond that they have frozen to death
even on the ivy mantled churches
where they sought refuge.
The other day, in Indoor and Out, q
weekly paper once published in this
city, Of the date Of November Il, 1875,
The writer found this advertisement:

Of our own importation now
ready for shipment. Hardy and
thoroughly acclimated.
These nonmigrating insectivor-
Gus birds will soon rid your trees

destroying insects.
The sparrows will devour large
quantities Of the larvae Of the
gr~asshopper, cotton worms and
all insects which are now the pest
in this country.
Hundreds Of thousands Of dol
lars could have been saved in the
vicinity Of Memphis had this bird
been present to destroy the buffalo

And fairer harvests shall crown thu

For the Old World sparrow at last Il
