From the Grass Valley (Cal.) Union

Louis Blanding says that the generally &C.
cepted statement that the largest nugget ever
found I'm California was worth little more
than S21 900 is an erroneous one, says the Viz
ginia City Enterprise. He says that J. ). Fin.
ney, "Old Virginia. found a piece of gold
about six miles from Downieville, Sierra
county, on the 2lst day OF August, 1857, that
weighed 5000 ounces. The gold of that vicin.
ity was worth $1S an ounce, which would
make the value Of the nugget some $50, 900. This
would make the Finney nugget the largest piece
OF pure gold ever discovered, SO tar as accounts
go. Heretofore the Australian nugget, found
in the Ballarat gold fields, has been considered
the largest. 1t was valued at $50, 900.

The Presidential Succession.

A REPUBLICAN WHO THINKS DEMOCRAT
SHOULD BE ELECTED PRESIDENT OF THE
SENATE.
To the Editor of THE EVENING STAR:
In discussing with Jules Favre, In 1871, the
terms of the surrender of Paris, Bismarck said
that sin politics personal preferences must be
sacrificed to the public good. rather than forced
upon the country, which should be served not
coerced." Favre, greatly impressed. replied
"CeSt bien juSte monsieur lie cOmte G est pro-
fond" II this is the idea of the foremost states
men ofGermany and France, how good it must
hold in relation TO our country? How carefully
it should be considered in relation to the seri-
GUS question of presidential succession now be-
fore us?
am republican, in the strictest sense of its
meaning this side of partisan, and no one re-
grets more than do the success of the OppOsi-
ton in the late elections. But majority of the
people has given the administration to the dem
ocrats for the ne1a four years, and its decision
has been loyalty accepted. In q country like
ours no public disaster is, or can be, apprehend-
ed from y stable government. The danger lies
in instability, and every well thinking man
its own salvation throughout its term OF Office
No partisan preferences must interfere with
the nations welfare. Now, If it was the intent
OF the people to let the democrats have power
for four years. the Senate, as honest, loyal SER
wants of the people, above the demagoguery of
the partisan politician, whose sole interest is
ACKNOWLEDGMENT, should see that the sue
cession be placed beyond peradventure in the
hands OF the selected administration, and
man. Possible contingencies must be guarded
against, and, Of all possible contingencies, none
seems to me more dangerous than change OF
administration against the will Of the people.
