*m&- LATEST- AMESKJAI^I&IKEKTION. THE y ICTOJIT of ELECTEICITY. — Since Electricity has been applied Hghfiug purposes, all efforts of inventors have beea directed, to construct, a lamp for general domestic use. The i reason why this problem has till now j riot been solved, is ; that 1 none of 'the inventors could rid ; themselves of the idea of gas lighting and that all have I adhered to. the system of producing the I Kiectricity in some central place, or by large machinery, instead of first laying < ! down the principal that a Lamp popular, > must be portable, like an Oil Lamp, and ■ contain the generator of Electricity in itself, i. c., in the foot of-the Lamp. The" Norman Electric Light C«. has at last succeeded in completely realizing this ideal of Electric Lightning, and there is no doubt that this most important invention will bring about a complete reyr lution in all branches of lighting. Our Electric Lamp] [needs neither Ma' chinery, Conductors, nor , any expensive outlay, and is neither complicated, nor ' disagreeable in manipulation ; all that; is necessary is , to reSU. it every four. or five .&ays;wjth,aeid., of } lightfna. will tie as cheap as gas (f cents per hour), and it, has before'' the latter the immense adf vantage of neither producing heat, smoke nor carbonic acid, r o_\?;ing^to,whioli the air is not impured, and remaibs at the tfaine #Jirwnof tfemperature.
