T" U NIVE R SAL GAS BURNER.
MI to SO per Cent. Saved !
To be had at the Patentees, 60, St. Martin's-lane, Charing-cross.
The Patentees beg to call public attention to the following facts,
the advantages resulting from tho invention are various and
striking. Independently of a saving of 30 to SO per cent„ the com-
bustion is perfect, and the brilliancy produced superior to any light
hitherto discovered. It emits neither smell nor smoke, and burns
steadily for any period ; and such is its purity, that it neither affects
or soils the most delicate colour or the finest fabric. Objections have
made to the introduction of gas in dwelling-houses, to the expense of
fittings, to its destruction of furniture, draperies, gold moulding, kc. ;
these are entirely obviated by the " PaTiNT Univintsar. Gas
Burman." As the cost of laying on gas is muck lower than is com-
monly supposed, it is adapted for private dwellings, as well as for
club-houses, hotels, manufactories, and public buildings. One of the
small burners is amply sufficient to light a good-sized room, at a sum
Immeasurably lower than spirit, oil, or candle, with the avoidance of
waste or trouble.
The merits of the " Burner," its brilliancy and economy surpassing
every other knovrn light, are shown by the annexed authentic
opinions of the qualities of the UNIVERSAL OAS BURNER.

centre of the flame by a hollow button in the middle of the burner.
The air passing up through the hollow stem •f the button, was

" Ia a series of experiments made upon Clark, AirNiell, anti Co.'s
Patent Universal Gas Burner, its superiority was satisfactorily esta-

MILITARY INTELLIGENCE.—CHATHAM, OCT. 5.
This morning the 57th Regiment, recently returned from
India, proceeded from this garrison, en route for Canter-
bury. The Ist division, comprising three companies,
under the command of Major T. Shadfirtb, marched at
six o'clock, and the 2d division of three companies, com-
prising the head-quarters, march to-morrow morning,
and the other two divisions on the two following days.
The strength of the regiment is 800 men. The 37th,
under orders for Ceylon, is expected to leave this gar-
rison at the latter end of this month. The strength of
this regiment is to be raised to 1,200 men, and out of
that number they will form a depOt.

The position of General Flores as President of Ecua-
dor has been set forth very fully in a printed paper cir-
culated in the City, and signed " Equatoriano." The
• paper is manifestly on the side of the President, but we
do not hesitate to give a pretty long abridgment of its
contents, since detailed news from Ecuador is a scarce
commodity, and a growing interest is felt in the pro-
' gress of the third Colombian republic, if we may judge
from the operations on the Stock Exchange. Among
other omissions made in the abridgment are the ratifi-
, cations of both treaties, which of course are merely
i formal
• "In March last year an insurrection broke out in
Guayaquil, the port of a province of Ecuador on the
Pacific ; it was headed by a shopkeeper named Senor
Zambo Roca. Roca being convicted of seditious acts,
had been ordered out of the country by the sentence of
the proper tribunal, but with the aid of a large sum of
.money contrived to corrupt a company of artillery guar-
: tered at Guayaquil, on the eve of his expulsion being
• carried into effect. What is called a pronunciamiento
followed, throwing off obedience to the Government, and
declaring the province independent.
" The President, General Flores (who had been elected
President for eight years in 1843, by the unanimous
suffrages of the people), sent down from Quito, the
capital of Ecuador, a few troops to quell the insurrection,
but it being the winter or rainy season, they could not
get into the town, the adjacent country about Guaya-
quil being flooded for many leagues during the months
of February to July. The rebels had seized upon all
the canoes and boats on the river, so that there was no
getting at them by this channel ; the troops of the Go-
vernment, therefore, went into cantonments at the El-
vire, an estate of the President's, situate at the head of
the river, there to await until the subsiding of the waters
should permit of access to the town.
" The rebels, in the mean time, pressed the people
into their ranks, and emboldened by the delay of the
Government force, ventured up the river in boats to
attack them before they should be reinforced • they
were miserably beaten, and some hundreds who landed
were thrust back into the river at the point of the
bayonet and drowned. They came up a second time,
and were again repulsed with great slaughter. The
President, ever generous and humane, did not witness
unmoved this destruction of the passive and ignorant
people, over whose welfare he had ever been a vigilant
guardian, by whom he was adored, and whose prosperity
he would have secured by the most enlightened mea-
sures, had he not been constantly thwarted in his views
by the seditious conspiracies of this same truculent in-
cendiary, Roca, and a few others of the same blighted
and broken reputation, who found in the indolent action
of the laws, and weakness of the executive power, time
to carry out their insurrectionary plans with impunity.
Thus in the year 1843, President Flores having asked
and obtained from the Congress of that year* power to
levy a small tax on the people (the ' people of Ecuador
pay no taxes), in order to secure a positive amount of
money to be solely and exclusively appropriated to the
payment of interest to the British bondholders, and
to restore by this means some portion of the
lost credit of the country, Mr. Zambo Roca raised
the standard of revolt and rebellion against the decree
of the Congress and the measures of the Govern-
ment for carrying that decree into effect, and in
this manner was retarded a settlement with the foreign
creditors notwithstanding the anxious desire of the Pre-
sident to do them justice, and at the same time to re-
lease the country from the stigma of dishonesty and in-
gratitude which still continues to disgrace it. The late
law of public credit established by Roca will convince
the bondholders of what they have to expect from such
a tyro. To return to the rebels of Guayaquil; I shall
briefly state that the President, although at the head of
an army firmly devoted to him, and officered by his
ancient comrades, the veterans of Bolivar, resolved to
spare the effusion of blood in a civil contest which had
no other foundation that the predatory views of Roca and
the gang of smugglers by whom he was surrounded and
supported. The President,', moreover, was not unwilling
that the people of Guayaquil should see their leaders in
their true colours, when his own influence in the country
could not be felt or misinterpreted. He therefore de-
sired that respectable persons of Guayaquil should be
selected to enter into a treaty or convention which
should put an end to the contest, and at the same time
enable him to indulge his long cherished desire of visit-
ing Europe. However magnanimous or humane the
policy of this step, it has been much blamed by the
other provinces of Ecuador, whose inhabitants as well
as the main body of the Government forces, only re-
ceived and only consented to a treaty with the rebels in
obedience to the wishes of the President. The following
is a copy of that treaty, and the President's proclama-
tion upon his departure for Europe:—
