Miscellaneous, THE LATEST AMERICAN INVENTION. THE VICTORY OF ELECTRICITY. SINCE Electricity has been applied for 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 ol the idea of gas-lighting, and that all have adhered to the system of producing the Electricity in some ce tral place, or by large machinery, instead of first laying down the principle that a Lamp which Bhould ever become generally useful and popular must bo portable, liko an Oil Lamp, and contain the generator of Electricity in itself, i.e., in the foot of the Lamp. Tho Norman Electric Light Co. has at last succeeded in completely realising this ideal of Electric Lighting, and there is no doubt that this most important invention will bring about a complete revolution in all branches of lighting. Our Electric Lamp needs neither Machinery, Conductors, nor any expensive outlay, and is neither complicated nor disagreeable in manipulation ; all that is necessary is to refill it every four or five days with acid. The cost of lighting will be as cheap as gas (3i cents per hour), and it has beforo the latter the immense advantage of neither producing heat, smoke nor carbonic acid, owing to which the air is not impured, and remains at the same degree of temperature. It' is, further, absolutely inodorous, and does not need to be kit.dled by match or otherwise, but Bimply by turning the key, thus avoiding al' danger of fire, explosion or suffocation, as in the case of gaß, if the key is left open ; and it'.must be conceded that this advantage alone is invaluable, lt is further preferable to any known kind of lighting for tho following reasons : — 1. Its manipulation is so simple that any child can keep it in order. 2. That the Lamp is portable, and can bB removed like any Oil Lamp from one place to another. 3. That it neither requires the disagreeable fixing of the wick or the cleaning of the cylinder, as in tho case of Oil Lamps. 4. That the light produced is a soft and most steady one ; that it never flickers, and the flame, though being equal in power of lighting to gas, can be regulated to any degree. 5. That every danger of fire is absolutely excluded, as tbe light will extinguish immediately if by any accident the glass surrounding the burner should be broken. 6. That it will burn, even in the strongest wind, completely unaffected, thus being invaluablo for illuminations, lighting of gar- 1 denß, corridors, etc. This Lamp is constructed for the present in three different sizeß : — A, small size. Height of complete Lamp, 14 inches ; weight, about five pounds ; for lighting rooms, collars, storage houses, powder magazines (or similar places where explosives I are kept), coaches, illuminations, gardens, mines, or any other industrial purposo. Prico, £1 per Lamp, delivered free to any part of the world. B, medium size. Serves all domestic purposes for lighting rooms, hou«cs, ete. This Lamp is elegantly decorated, and has removable white ground Glass Globe. Prico, por Lump (inclusive of Bronze Foot and Globe, richly and elegantly constructed), £2, delivered free to any part of the world. 0. Grand size for Parlor, Hall, . Saloon, Public Building, etc. Tho Lamp gives a most brilliant and Btoady light, bas largo removable white Globe, decorated most tastefully, and the workmanship is both first-class and elegant. Price, SA lOs. Foot of Lamp in either .Bronze, Japanese, Faience, or SUver Oxide. Any special size or design made to order. Estimates furnished.
