Latest American Invention. VICTORY OFTIECIRIOIIY. QINCE 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 of the idea of gas lighting, and that all have adhered to the system of producing the Electricity in some central place, or by large machinery, instead of fits' laving down the principle that a Lamp which should ever become generally useful and popular, must bo portable, like an Oil Lamp, and contain the generator of Electricity in itself, i. e., in the foot, of the Lamp. The Norman Electric Light Co. has at last succeeded in completely realizing 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 anyexpensive outlay, and is neither complicated, nor disagreeable in manipulation; all that is necessary is to refill it even* lour or five days with acid. The cost of lighting xoill be as cheap as gas (f cents per hour), and it hue before the latter the immense advantage of neither j rouucing 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 fire , explosion or suffocation, asm the case of 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 ;

(l.j its manipulation is so simple that any child can keep it in order. (2.) That the Lamp is portable, and can be rc. mored 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 the case of Oil Lamps. /k) That the light producsd is a soft and most ste.idy one j that it never flickers, and the flame, though being equal in power of lighting to gas, can be regulated to any degree. (6.) That every danger of fire, is absolutely excluded, as the light will extinguish immediately,"if by any accident the glass surrounding the burner should be broken. (8.) That it will burn, even in the strongest wind, completely unaffected, thus being invaluable for illuminatiuus, lighting of gardens, corridors, etc. This Lamp is constructed for the present m throe different sizes . A,small size. Height ofcompleto Lamp, U inches; weight, about 5 pounds : for lighting rooms, collars, Murage houses, powder magazines (or similar places w civ explosives are kept), coaches, illuminations, g i rdcus, mines, or any other industrial purpose.
