Fine Barns Burned.

County Commissioner Lewis B. Perkins barns in Oxford, destroyed by fire Monday, were among the finest buildings of the kind in New Haven county. Jones & Drake, rail road contractors, had their teams stabled in one of the barns. The fire was so swift in it's work that the horses were with difficulty saved One of the barns was 34x48, with cow-house 2Sx+8 adjoining. The barn was of the style called t'bank barn." i. e., with an underground compartment for stabling pur- poses, etc., with one side to the weather. The barn was filled with upwards of fifty tons of hay; several hogs were stabled in the build ing and perished The other barn was 26x36 in dimension and contained six or eight tons of hay and 100 bushels of apples. Besides the hay in the large barn there were stored MT. Perkins farming utensils and a wagon, all of which were burned. The loss falls with particular severity upon MT. Perkins, who will be forced to put his large herd of cattle upon a crowded market at a great sac rifice. The buildings were partially insured.

 The Negro Exodus-Its Renewal Since
 the Election.
 NEW YORK, Nov. 16.-President Sherman. of the Mechanics bank of this city, has re- ceived the following dispatch from Quaker who has been active in seeking to relieve the colored people of the South:
 WEST PH1LADRLpHIA, Nov. 15. from Louisiana and Alabama. Thousands of colored people are leaving pelmen and no influence but his have. and he ought to distribute them through the West. J. 0. BROWNE. To B. B. Sherman.
 General T. W. Conway, when questioned about this dispatch, said ''The southern ne- groes are bound to leave the southern States. I and others year ago advised them to wait and see if their treatment would not be improved. The intimidation and proscrip- tion shown during the late campaign have only increased their determination to find homes elsewhere. There are ons hundred thousand negroes in the different southern States organized in bands, and having money to buy land with. It is a mistake to suppose that all the southern negroes are penniless When 1t is remembered that in seven years they accumulated more than $50, COG, GOO in the Freedmen's Savings Bank, they cannot be accused of improvidence. Since that bank failed they have hidden their savings in the ground, in their houses and in their clothes, and if they had been fairly paid for their labor they would be in still better con- dition Some northern men who want to test the question of the negro's capability as a land owner have formed company of which J. M. Woodward, of New Rochelle, is president, and have purchased seven hun dred thousand acres of land in New Mexico, which they will offer on easy terms to the colored emigrants Poor white men have gone West and become prosperous Now it is proposed to see if poor black men cannot do the same"
 When asked what he should do in regard to MT. Browne's dispatch, General Conway said that he would make further inquiries as to the extent of the present movement, going South himself if necessary, and would turn the exodus westward. He thinks that the southern land owners make the greatest pos sible mistake in not treating the negroes so as to retain their services, as negro labor is the only labor that can be profitably used on the plantations.

 A paper "On the Intimate Structure of Certain Mineral Veins" was then read by Professor Silliman. Other papers already registered for presentation during the session are as follows: ssOn the Origin of the Coral Reefs of Yucatan and Florida Banks" by Professor Agassiz; 'sOn some Recent Ex- periments in Determining the Electro Motive Force of the Bush Dynamo-Electric Ma chine, D by Professor Henry Morton; ssMeas- urement of new forms of Electric Lamps Operating by Incandescence by Professor Morton; Archaeological Notes,n bY Profes- sor SiHiman, and the Relationship of the
