THE LATEST AMERICAS INVENTION. THE VICTORY OF ELECTRICITY. SINCE Electricity has been applied for lighting purposes, all efforts of in- ; venters have bean directed to conlruct 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 of gas lighting, and that all adhered to the system of producing the Eb ctricity in some central place, or by large machinery, instead of first laying down the principle that a Lamp which should eve* - become generally useful and popular must, be portable, like an Oil Lamp, and contain the generator of Electricity in itself, i. 0., in the foot of the Lamp. The Norman Electric Light Co. have at last succeeded in completely 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 disagreeable in manipulation ; 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 (f cents p r hour), and it has before the latter immense advantage of neither producing heat, smoke or carbonic acid, owing to wh’ch the air is rot impaired, and remains at the same degree of temperature. It is further, absolutely inodorous, and does not reed to be kindled by match, or otherwise, but simply bv tun ing the key, thus avoiding all danger of fire, explosion er suffocation, ns in the case of gas, 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 the Lamp is portable, ( 'fl.nd 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 fbe ease of Oil Lamps. (4) r J but the light produced is a soft and most steady one ; that it never flickers, and the flame, though being equal in power of lighting to gas, can be regulated to any degree. (5) That every danger of fire i« absolutely excluded,! as the light will extinguish immediately if by any accident the glass surrounding the burner should, bo broken. (fi) '} hat it will burn, eveo in the strongest wind, completely unaff. cted, thus being invaluable for illuminations,.lighting of gardens, corridcrs, etc. This 1 nmp is constructed for the present, in three different 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, illuminations, gardens, mines, or any other industrial purposes. Price £1 per lamp, delivered free to any part of the World. , , P, medium size. Serves all domestic purposes for lighting rooms, houses, ete. This Lamp is elegantly decorated, and has re morable white ground Glass Globe. Price, per Lamp (inclusive of Bronze Foot and Globe, richly and elegantly constructed), £2, delivered free to any part of (he World. C. Grand eizo for parlor, hall, saloon, public building, ete. The Lamp gives a most biithant 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, Faience or Silver Ozide.

Any special size or design made to order. Estimates furnished. All Lamps are ready for immediate use, and will be sen*, securely packed in strong wooden boxes, with piloted directions for use, a quantity of clemicd sufficient finseveral months’ lighting, and one extra burner for size A, and two for sizes B and C. The recessary chemicals can be purchased in any Drug Store, in even the smallest village. Every Lamp is accompanied by a written guarranti-e for one year, and will he exchanged or money refunded if the same ahould not give complete satisfac' ion. On all orders for sis 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 Philadelphia house. The best method of sending money is by draft on New York, which can be procured at any Danker, and everywhere, or enclose the amount in Bank notes, gold coins, or postage s'amps of any country of the world. All orders, the smallest as well as the most important, will receive the same particular attention, and will be forwarded without delay. Our i lectrlc 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 special knowledgo or capital re quired. A fortune to be trade by active persons. Address: THE NORMAN ELECTRIC LIGHT 00„ no!9 Philadelphia, D.S. of America,
