Miscellaneous. THE LATEST AMERICAN INVENTION. THE VICTORY OF ELECTRICITY. OINCE Electricity has been applied for k3 lighting purposes, all efforts of inventors have been directed to construct a lamp for , general domestic use. The reason why this problem has till now not been solved is that none of the inventors could rid themselves o< ' the idea of gas-lighting, and that all have adhered to the system of producing the Eleotrioifrp m some cc tral place, or by large machinery, instead of first laying down the principle that a Lamp which should ever become generally useful and popular must be portable, like an Oil Lamp, and contain the generator of Klectricity m itself, i.e., m the foot of the Lamp. The Norman Electric Light Co. has at last succeeded m completely realising this ideal of Klei'tric Lighting, and there is no doubt that this most impor'atit invention will bring about a complete revolution m all branches oi lighting. Our Electrio Lamp needs neither Machinery, Conductors, nor any expensive out. lay, and is neither complicated nor disagree able m manipulation ; all that is neces sary is to refill it every four or five day< with acid. The cost of lighting will bs as cheap as gas (3i cents per hour) and it has before the latter the im mense advantage of neither producing heat smoke nor carbonic acid, owing to which the air is not inipured, and remains at the same degree of temperature. It is, further, absolutely inodorous, and does not need to be kir.dled by match or otherwise, but simply by turning the key, thuß avoiding al danger oi fire, explosion or suffocation, as m the case oi gas, if the key is left open ; and it must be conceded that this advantage alone is invaluable. It is further preferable to any known kind of lighting for the following reasons : — 1. Its manipulation is so simple that any child can keep it m order. 2. That the Lamp is portable, and can be removed like any Oil Lamp from one place to another. 3. 'ihat it neither requires the disagreeable fixing of the wick or the cleaning of the cylinder, as m the case of Oil Lamps 4. Ihat the light produced is a soft and most steady one ; that it never flickers, and the flame, though being equal m power of lighting to goa, can be regulated to any (iegree. 5. That every danger of fire is absolutely excluded, as the light will extinguish immediately if by any accident the glass surrounding the burner Bhould be broken. , 6. That it will burn, even m the strongest 1 wind, completely unaffected, thus being invaluable for illuminations, lighting of gardens, corridors, etc. ■ This Lamp is constructed for the present m three different sizes : — A, small sizo. Height of complete Lamp 14 inches ; weight, about five pounds ; foi lighting rooms, cellars, storage houses, powdei magazines (or similar places whore explosivei arc kept, coaches, illuminations, gardens mines, or any other industrial purpose.

Grand size for Parlor, Hall, Saloon, I Public Building, etc. Tho Lamp gives a most ; brilliant and steady light, has large removable white Globe, decorated most tastefully, and tho workmanship is both first-class and elegant. Price, £4 10s. Foot of Lump ir either Bronze, Japanese, Faience, or SUvei p Oxido. Any special size or design made- to order. ■ Estimates furnished. All Lamps are ready for immediate use, and will be sent, securely packed m strong wooden box, with printed directions for use, a quantity of chemicals sufficient for several months' lighting, and one extra burner foi sizo A, and two for sizes B and O._ The necessary chemicals cun be purchased m any Drug Store, m even the smallest village. Every Lamp is accompanied by a written i guarantee for one year, and will be exchanged or money refunded if the Bame should not give complete satisfaction. On all orders for six Lamps and above a discount of six per cent will be allowed.
