Latest American Invention. VICTORY OFTIECTRIGITY. qINCK Electricity has been applied for lighting purO poses, nil efforts of inventors have been direeied to cons'ruct a lamp for general domehtic use. The reason why this problem has till now not been solved, is that uoue of the inventors could rid themselves of the idea of gas lighting, and ihul all have adhered to the system of producing the Eh ctiieity in some Central place, or by la'ge machinery, instead of fii at laying down the principle (hat a Lamp which should ever become generally useful and popular, must be portable, like an Oil Lamp, and contain the generator of Electricity in itself, r. a., in the fool of the Lamp. The Herman Electric Light Co. has atlastsucceeded in completely realizing this ideal of Electric Lighting, and there is no doubt that this most important mvention wiU bring about a complete revolution iu all branches of lighting. Our Electric Lamp needs neither Machinery, Conductors, nor any expensiieoutlay and is neither complicated nor diaagieeuble in manipulai ion ; all that la necessary is to refill it every four or five days with acid, The cost of lighting will be as cheap as gas (J cents per hour), ana it has before the latter the immense advantage of neither producing heat, smoke nor carbonic acid, owiug 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 suflbcaiiou, as m the case ot gas, if the key is left open : and it must be conceded that this advantage alone is invaluable, It is further ) referable to any known kind of lighting lor the following reasons , (1.) Its manipulation is so simple that any child i can keep it in order. I (2.) That the Lamp is portable, nud can be removed like any Oil 1-auip, from oneplace to another. ■a) That it neither requires the disagreeable fixing of the wick, or the cleaning of the cylinder, as m the case of Oil Lamps. (4.) That the light produced is a soft and moat I steady one ; that it never Dickers, and the (lame, though being equal iu power of lighting to gas, can j be regulated to any degree. : (5.) That every danger of fire i.v absolute!]! ear- ( eluded, as the light will extinguish immediately, if by j any accident the glass surrounding the burner should be broken. t (it.) That it will burn, even in the strongest wind, completely unaffected, thus being invaluable for illuminations, lighting of gardens, corridors, etc, This Lamp is constructed for (he present in tim e different sizes A, small size.
