Since Elec'riciiy has been appl'ed for ighting purposes, all efforts of inventors have been to construct a lamp for general domestic use. The reason why this problem has till now not been eolved, is that none of the inventor.' could rid themselves of the idea of gas lighting, and that all havo adhered to tbe system of produciog the Electricity in some central place, or by larce machinery, instead of tirat laying down the principle that a Lamp which should ever hecomo generally useful and popular, must be ponable, like au oil Lamp, and contain the generator of Blcctrici y in itself, i. c., in the foot of the Lamp. The Norman Eloctric Light Co. haa at . last succeeded in completely realising this . ideal of Electric Lighting, and there is no doubt that tbis most important invention will bring about a complete revolution iti all brancbos of lighting.

Our Electric Lamp needs neither Machinerg, Conductors, or any expensive outlay, and is neither complicated nor disagreeable in manipulation ; all that is? necessary is to rtiill it every four or five days with ncid. The cost of lighting will he as cheap as gas Q cents per hour), and it has be'ore ihe latter the immense advantage of neither producing htat, sm^ke, nor carbonic acid, omm to which the air is not impured, and reroa n3 at the sumc degree of temperatu'e. !t is finther, abso. lately mod r.-u-, and does Dot need to be kindled by nii' ch, oroihfrmisp, botsunpiy by turning the key, thua avoiding all danger of fire, explosion or suftbeatiou, as in the case of gas>, it" tbe key is left open ; and it must be coucedo 1 (hat this advantage alouo i 3 invaluable. It is further preferable to any Uuovin kind of lighting or the following reasons : 0). Iti manipulation is fo simple that any child can keep it in order. (2). Thnfc he Lamp ia portable, and can bo removed lil>o any Oil Lamp, from one place to anotb'r. (3. Ihat it neither requires the diaaKrio*b!e fixing of the wick, or ihe cleaning of the cylindtr, as in tlio case of Oil La^nps (<t). That the light produced ib a aoffc and most st> ady one ; that it never flickers, and the name, thou.-;h bciug equal iv power of lighting to gag, cm be regulated Ui any degree. (5) Tbat every danger of Jire is absolutely excluded, as the light wi'l extinguish immediately, if by auy accident the glass surrounding the burner should be broken, (6). Tbat it will bum, even in the strongest wind, completely unaffected, thua being invaluable ioriliumiuatious, lighting of gardens, colridors, etc. This lamp is constructed for the present in three different sizes : — A, small size. Height of complete Lamp, 14 niches ; weight, about 5 pounds; for lighting rooms, celiars, storage houses, powder magazines (or similar places where explosives are kept), coaches, illuminations, gardens, mines, or any other industrial purpose.
