REVOLUTION IN ECUADoR-An American
Nara! OItieeT Piizzted 10 hnolO the Reason Whu
Captain f. Simpson, of the U. 8. steamer
Omaha writes TO the Navy department,
under date Of Quay yaquIl, Ecuador. Septem-
oer 10th, that he arrived there on the Sth in
slant and found the city in the midst OF
revolution, the general in command of the
troops In the city having issued pronun-
ciamectO TO that effect, with the support OF
the troops and apparently with the consent
OF the people. Ga the following day circu-
lar was issued 10 all foreign consuls In the
city, notifying them that the government OF
the republic OF Ecuador had been assured by
General NentemtIla, and assuring them OF
the preservation of perfect order. Captain
Simpson states be is unable TO give the de-
partment any account OF the cause of this

ment originated in GuayaQuil would be fol-
lowed by the people In Quito. II such should
be the case the presidency OF Mr.. Borrero Is
at an end, and General Nenunilla will as
sume the position OF Revolutionary president
OF Ecuador. Captain Simpson, in conc u.
sion, says. "Causes which produce reyolu-
tons In these countries are not always ap-
parent, but sudden change OF government
In Ecuador seems to be truly uuaccountable
when II is remembered how this country r.
Joiced about year ago at its relief from q
despOtic government which had endured for
twelve years, and with what enthusiasm
Mr. Borrero was elected by all classes to fill
the office OF president"
