THE VICTORY OF ELECTRICITY, i SINCE Electricity has been applied for lifting purposes, all efforts of inventors have be-n directed to conlruet a lamp for general domestic use. The reason why this problem has till now not been solved, is that none of the inventors could rid themselves of the idea of gas lighting, and that all adhered to the system of producing the Eh ctricity in some central place, or by large machinery, instead of first laying down the principle that a Lamp which should eve* 1 become generally useful end 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. have at last 8 icceedfd in completily realising this ideal of Electric Lighting, and there is no doubt that this most 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 in manipulation j all that is necessary is to refill it every four or five days with acid. The cost of lighting will be as cheap as gas (| cents p r hour), and it has before the latter immense advantage of neither producing heat, smoke or carbonic acid, owing to winch Ihe air is not. impaired, and remains at Ihe same degree of temperature. It ifurther, absolutely inodorous, and does not need to be kindled by match, or otherwise, but simply by tur ing the key, thus avoiding all danger of fire, explosion or suffocation, as in the case of eas, if the key is left alone ; and it must be conceded that this advantage alone is invaluable. It is further preferab e to any known kind of lighting for the following reasons : (1) Its manipulation is so simple that any child can keep it in order. (2) That iho Lamp is portable,'and can be removed like any Oil Lamp from one p'uce 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. (4) That the light produced is a soft and most steady one ; that it never flickers, and the flame, though being eqii'.d in power of lighting to gas, can be regulated to any decree. (5) That every danger of fire i« absolutely excluded,! as the light will extinguish immediately if hy any accident the glass surrounding the burner should be broken. (6) That it will burn, even in the strongest, wind, completely unaff, eted, thus being invaluable for illuminations, lighting of gardens, corridors, etc. This I amp is constructed for the present in three dflerent sizes ; A, small size. Height of complete Lamp, 14 inches; weight, about 5 pounds; for lighting rooms, cellars, storage houses, powder magazines (or similar places were explosives are kept), coaches, illuminaiions, gardens, mines, or any other industrial purposes. Price £1 per lamp, delivered free to any part of the World. B, medium size. Serves all domestic purposes for lighting rooms, houses, etc. This Lamp is elegantly decorated, and has re movable white ground Glass Globe. Price, per Lamp (inclusive of Bronze Eoofc and Globe, richly and elegantly constructed), £2, delivered free to any part of (he World. C. Grand size for parlor, hull, saloon, public building, etc. The Lamp gives a most brilliant and steady light, lias large removable white Globe, decorated most tastefully, and tbe workmanship is both first-class and elegant. Price, £4 10s. Foot of Lamp is either Bronze, Japanese, Faience or Silver Ozide. Any special size or design made to order. Estimates furnished. All Lamps are ready for immediate use, and will be sent, securely packed in strong wooden boxes, with printed directions for use, a quantity of chomic’d sufficient for several months’ lighting, and one extra burner for size A, and two for sizes B and C. The necessary chemicals can be purchased in any Drug Store, in even the smallest village. Every Lamp is accompanied by a written guarrantee for one 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 pe' c. nt will be allowed. No orders trom abroad filled, unless acnimpanied by a remittance to cover the amount, or first-class references on a New York or Philadelphia house. The best method of sending money is by draft on New York, which can be procured at any Banker, and everywhere, or enclose tbe amount in Bank notes, gold coins, or postage s amps of any country of the world.
