THE LATEST AMERICAN INVENTION. THE VICTORY OF ELEOTBION Y. SINCE Electricity has been apphod for licl ting purposes, nil efforts of inventors have be"n directed to conlruct a lump for general dome«tic use. The reason why this problem has till now not been 6olved, is that nonn of the inventors could rid themselves of the idea of gas lighting, and that, all adhered to the system of producing lhe Electricity in some central plaoe; or by large machinery, instead of firit laying down the principle that a Lamp wbioh should ove r 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 cf the Lamp. The Norman Electric Light Co. bare at last succeeded in completely realising 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 ; b 1! that is necessary is to refill it every four or five days with acid. The cost of lighting will bo as cheap as gas (x cents per hour), and it has before the latter immense advantage of neither producing heat, smoke or carbonic acid, owing to which the air is not impaired, 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 bv turning the key, thus avoiding all danger of fire, explosion or suffocation, as in the case of gas, if the key ia left nlone ; and it must be conceded that this advantage alone is invaluable. It is further preforab'e to any known kind of lighting for the following reasons : (1) Its mimipulation ia so eimp'o that any child can keep it in order. (2) That Ibe 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 caee of Oil Lamps. (4) That tbe light produced is a soft and most steady one ; that it never flickers, and the flame, though being equal in power of lighting to ga?, can be regulated to any depree. (5) That every danger of fire is absolutely excluded,! as the light will extinguish immediately if by any accident the glass surrounding the burner should be broken. (6) That it vill burn, even in the strongest wind, completely unaffected, thus being invaluable for illuminations, lighting of gardens, corridors, etc. This Lamp is constructed for the present in three different'sizes:—

A, sronll size. Height of complete Lamp, 14 inches; weight, about 5 pounds; for lighting rooms, cellnrs, storage houses, powder magazines (or similar places were explosives are kept), coaches, illuminations, gardens, mines, or any ether industrial purposes. Price £1 per lamp, delivered free to any part of the World. B, medium Bize. Serves all domestic purposes for lighting rooms, houses, etc. This Lamp is elegantly decorated, and has removable white ground Glass Globe. Price, per Lamp (inclusive of Bronze Foot and Globe, richly and elegantly constructed), £2, delivered free to any part of the World. G. Grand size for parlor, hall, saloon, public building, etc. The Lamp gives a most brilliant and steady light, has large removable white Globe, decorated most tastefully, and the workmanship is both first-class and elegant. Price, £4 10s. .Foot of Lamp is either Bronze, Japanese, Fa'ieDce or Silver Ozide. Any special size or design made to order. Ebtimates furnished. All Lamps are ready for immediate use, and will be sent, eeourely packed in strong wooden boxes, with printed directions for Ufe, a quantity of ohemical sufficient for several months' lighting, and one extra burner for size A, and two for sizes B and C. The Decessary chemicals can be purchased in any Drug Store, in even the smallest village. &rery Lamp is accompanied by a written guarrantee for oue year, and will be exchanged or money refunded if ,the same should not give complete satisfaction. On all orders for six lamps and above a discount of six per cent will be allowed. No orders from abroad filled, unless accompanied by a remittance to cover the amount, or first-class references on a New York or rhiladelphia house. The best method of sending money is by draft on Kew York, which can be procured at any Banker, and everywhere, or enclose the amount in Bank notes, gold coins, or postage stamps cf any country of the world. All orders, the smallest as well as the rao9t important, will receive the same particular attention, and will ba forwarr'cd without delay. Our *lectr;o Lamps are protected by law, and all imitations and infringements will be prosecuted. Agents, Salesmen on Commission, and Consignees for our Lamps, wanted everywhere. No speoial knowledge or capital re quired. A fortune to be made by active persons. Address: THE NORMAN ELECTEIO LIGHT CO,, nol9 Philadelphia, U.B. of America,
