ceptions of educated men, and how that bias
incapacitates them for the rational pursuit
of truth. If, however, Yale is to be con-
sidered henceforth an institution where
sound learning can be obtained, it will
clearly be necessary for its Faculty to purge
themselves OF the stigma of bigotry and
narrowmindedness which this episode must
cause to adhere to them.

THE TROUBLE AT YALE.

The disputation over the attempt of
President Porter toexclude Herbert Spencer
from Yale continues with undated energy.
The church press has now entered the arena,
and as usual in such cases, is rapidly i'm
parting strong favor of bigotry and in
tolerance to the controversy. The whole
trouble, as we have once stated, grew out
of the employment by Professor Sumner of
Spencer's volume, entitled "The Study of
Sociology" as textbook. In that
book Mr.. Spencer treats of the difficulties
which obstruct the study of sociology, in
the many forms of bias to which the human
mind is liable. He examines the educa-
tional bias, the patriotic bias, and, among
others, the theological bias. 1t is probably
his chapter upon this last-named disturb
ing influence which has moved the ire of
President Porter and the clique that is
urging him on. Spencer is compelled, in
the calculation of his argument, to show
how theological bias may prevent just
conceptions of social phenomena, and he
draws his illustration indiferently from all
religions. 1t seems that President Porter
thinks he ought to have excepted Christian
ity, and should not have presumed to
intimate the possibility of erroneous ideas
being entertained by theologians of that
creed. Obviously, however, Spencer could
not have made such an exception, for in
the first place it would have been irrational
and unscientific, and in the second place it
would have justified suspicion that he,
himself, was laboring under theological
bias, and therefore was unfit to perform
the task he had undertaken. President
Porter, on his part, is offering very strong
confederation of Spencer's hypothesis, for
he is showing the world how completely
the theological bias may distort the per-

The Stockton Independent says: The at
titude of the Republicans of San Joaquin

predict. They will be found united to a
man in harmony and full accord in support
of the principles that saved the Govern

nations credit and honor, engrafted the
principles of the broadcast liberty into the
laws, and presented to the world the
glorious spectacle of forty-five millions of
people the most free and prosperous under

The Amador Ledger, referring to the
Wells, Fargo & Co. letter-carrylng ques-
ton, says: eve commend the depart
ment for prying into this question, and
endeavoring to get at the bottom facts in
connection Herewith. 1t is indicative of
strong, energetic and thorough-going
administration. The right to derive rev.
enue from the carrying of mails belongs to
the Government, and it comes with bad
taste for partisan journals to upbraid the
department for seeking to protect the
sources of public revenue. We have not
one word of censure, therefore, against the
department for looking into this matter. ;"

BUcKwHEAT AS FooD-A French sci
enlist who has lately been investigating
buckwheat, gives the following as the re-
suit of his researches: Buckwheat cakes
are equal to pure white bread as regards
the phosphates or bone-making material
and nitrogenous principles which they con-
tain, and are superior to bread in fatty
matters. The general yield of buckwheat
when cooked is about three times the
weight of the flour used, showing that
such flour will retain forty to forty-one
per cent. of water. Between different
patches of ground buckwheat there is
great dissimilarity of composition-on
batch containing nearly seven times as
much nitrogen, twenty times the
amount of phosphates, and hundred and
fifteen times as much fatty matter as an
other. The bran is the richest portion of
the buckwheat, but cannot be digested by
weak stomachs. The finest qualities Of
buckwheat flour, and the white mill dust
especially, are very suitable for children
and persons in poor health, while the
stronger varieties require strong stomach
and much exercise for their perfect diges-
tom American Miller.

Fire at San Francisco.

SAN Francisco, April 2Oth.-At about
s o'clock this morning an employee of the
brewers supply depot, of the firm of Her
mann & Co., No. 313 Sacramento street, be-
tween Front and Davis, discovered that a
large quantity of loose hops had ignited from
a defective fue in the second story of the
building. When the fire was discovered the
flames were beyond control of those present,
and an alarm was turned in from box &c,
which brought out the department. Before
the engines arrived the flames were darting
out of the windows, and the whole interior of
the first and second stories was a sheet of
fire, rendered more fierce by the large quaint.
ties of baled hops stored there. The fire was
not gotten under control until a loss of So
600 had been sustained, which is fully COW
cred by insurance. The building, which is of
brick, is owned by Halem & Hollay, and was
also insured.
