THE LATJtBT AMUHIOAi' INVENTION. THE VICTORY OP ELECTRICITY. SJNCE Electricity has been applied for limiting purposes, all efforts of inventors have been directed to contruct a lamp for general domestic use. The reason why thin problem has till now not beon 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 Electricity in some central place, or by larpe machinery, instead of fir«t, laying down the principle that o 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. e., 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 brine about a completo revolution in all branches of Light ngOur Electric Lamp needs neither Machinery, Conductors, nor any expensive outlay, and is neither complicated, nor di-agreeable in manipulatien ; 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 cent? p-r hour), and it has before tho 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 ifurther, absolutely inodorous, and does not need to be kindled by match, or otherwise, but eimply by turning the key, thug avoiding all danger of fire, explosion or suffocation, as 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 preferable 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 tho Lamp is can be romoved 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 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 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 be broken. (6) That it Till 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, 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, dshvered frea 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 re movable 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. C, 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 tho 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 ore ready for immediate use, and will be sent, securely packed in strong wooden boxes, with printed directions for use, a quantity of chemical 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. livery Lamp is accompanied by a written guarrantee for one year, and will be exchanged or money refunded if |the same Bhould not give complete satisfaction. On all orders for six lamps and above a discount of tix 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. Tho best method of sending money is by draft on New York, which can be prooured at any Banker, and everywhere, or enclose the amount in Bank notes, gold coins, or postage stamps 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.
