rHBLATKa , J , AMAKI'OA.>I>VISaTIOiV THE VICTORY C,¥ ELECTRICITY. SINCE EVetricity has been applied for iirfi'tiiitf purpose*, alI <-tfoiti of inhave btvn direoted t<> conlruct a li.uip lor general domestic use. The veason why this problom has till now not been solved, is ihut none of the inventors could rid themselves of the idea of gas lighting, and that, all adhered to the system of producing ibe Aieetrici'T in some central place, or by largn machinery, ..instead of first laying down the principle that a Lump which should ■.vc* become generally useful and popular must, be portable, like an Oil Lamp, and contain the generator of 'Electricity in itself, i. e., in tin! foot of the Lamp. The Norman Electric Lighr, Co. have at last Succeeded in completely realising this ideal of Electric Lighting, and there ia no doubt that this mail important invention will brin? itbcut a comploto revolution in all branches of Lighting. Our Slec'Hc Lamp needs neither Machinery, Conductor, v.cr any expensive outlay, and is neither complicated, nor disagreeable in manipulatkn ; alt that is necessary is to refill it every tour or five days with acid* The cobl of lighth g •* ill be as cheap os gar (£ cents pf»r hour), anil it has before the latter immense advautape if neither producing heat, smoke or carbonic acid, owing to which the air is not. impaired, and remains at j the sane degree of temperature. It ir! further, absolutely inodorous, and does not need to be kindled by . match, or otherwise, but (imply by turning the key, thus avoiding all danger of fire, explofion «r suffocation, as'in the ease of eas, if the key is left nlone'; and it must be conceded that ttiis advantage alone is invaluable. It is further prtferab e to any known kind of lighting lor the following reasons : (1) Its manipulation is so simple that any child can keep it in order. (2) That the Lamp is portable, and can be removed like any Oil Lamp from one place to atiosher. (3) That, it neither requires the disag'wabie fixiug of the wick, or the cleaning of the cylinder, as in the case of Oil Lamps. (4) That, the light produced is a soft and most steady one ; that it never flick?rs, and the flame, though beirg equal in power of lighting to ga?, can be regulated to any det.ree. (f>) 'J lab every danger of fire i« absolutely excluded, us the light will extinguish lmmedi'ilely if by any uccidont the glass surroundirg tho burner should be broken.
