Miscellaneous. THE LATEST AMERICAN INVENTION. THE VICTORY OF ELECTEICITST. SINCE Electricity has been appliod for lighting purposes, all efforts of invcntorß have been directed to construct a lamp for general domestic use. The reason why this problem has till now not been solved ib that none of the inventors could rid themselves of the idea of gas-lighting, and that all have adhered to tho system of producing the Electricity m some ce.tral place, or by large mncliinery, instead of first laying down the principle that a Lamp which should ever bocome generally useful and popular must bo porlablo, liko'an Oil Lamp, and contain the generator of Electricity m itself, i.e., m the foot of tho Lamp. The Norman Electric Light Co. has at last succeeded m completely realising this ideal of Electric Lighting, and thero is no doubt that this most important invention will bring about a complete revolution m all branches of lighting. Our Electric Lamp needs neither Machinery, Conductors, nor any expensive outlay, and is neither complicated nor disagreeablo m manipulation ; all that is necessary is to refill it every four or live days with acid. The cost of lighting will be as cheap, as gas (3£ cents por hour), and it has before tho 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 kindled by match or otherwise, but simply by turning the key, thus avoiding all danger of lire, explosion or suffocation, as m the case of gas, if the key is left open; and it must bo 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 bo 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. That it neither requires the disagreeable fixing of the wiok or the cleaning of the cylinder, as m the cose of Oil Lamps. 4. That tho light produced is a soft and most steady one ; that it never flickers, and the flame, though being equal m power of lighting to gas, can be regulated to any degree. „. 5. That every danger of firo is absolutely excluded, as the light will extinguish immediately if by any accident tho glass surrounding the burner should bo broken. 6. That it will burn, oven m the strongest wind, completely unaffected, thns being invaluablo for illuminations, lighting of gardens, corridors, etc. This Lamp is constructed for the present m tliree different sizes : — A, email size. ' Height of complete Lamp, 14 inches ; weight, about five pounds ; for lighting rooms, cellars, storago houses, powder magazines (or similar places where explosives aro kept), ooaches, illuminations, garden*,minesj or any other industrial purpose.
