Latest American Invention. VICTORY OFELECTRICITY. QINCB Electricity has been applied for lighting parposes, all effort* of inventors hare been directed to cooalructa lamp for general domeatio oae. The rrasou why this problem has till now not been solved, is that none of the inventory could rid themaelrea of the idea of gaa lighting, and that all hare adhered to the system of producing the Electricity in some central place, or by large machinery, instead ef 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 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 moat 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. Theeott eflighting will be a* cheap ae gat (} cents per hour), and it has before 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 dees not need to be kindled by match, or otherwise, but simply by turning the key, thus avoiding all danger of fire , explosion or suffocation, as in the case of gas, if the key is left open ; and it must be conceded that this advantage alone is invaluable. It is farther preferable to any known kind of lighting for the following reasons (1.) Its manipulation is so simple that any child oan keep it in 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 wick, or the cleaning of the cylinder, as in the case of Oil Lamps. (1.) 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 it absolutely excluded, aa the 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 invaluable for illuminations, lighting of gardens, corridors, etc. This Lamp is constructed fur the present in three different sizes : A, small size. Height o' complete Lamp, It inches; weight, about 6 pounds : for lighting rooms, cellars, storage houses, powder magazines (or similar places where explosives are kept), coaches, illuminations, gardens, mines, or any other industrial purpose.
