The reason that this problem has not till now been solved, is that none of the inventors could rid themselves of the idea of gas lighting, and that ail have adhered to the system of producing the Klectricity in some central place, or-by large muchinery, instead of first laying down the principle that a Lamp which should ever become generally useful and popular, must be portable, like an Oil Lamp, and contain tjic goacrat ir of Electricity in itself, i.e., in fee foot <:i ;lie Lamp. The Norman jJkwie Co, has atlart succeeded in mylcfcly tc?.iizia» this ideal of Electric lighlin», and there is uo doubt that this most imp'ji'u.iii invention will bring about a comph'it: i evolution in a'l blanches oi' lighting, Our Electric Lamp needs neither Machinery, Conductors, nor any expensive outlay, and is neither complicated, nor diiagreei'.blc iii manipulation ; all that is Bimaiyfe' to refill it every four or five days with acid. The ewt oi' lighting will be as cheap as gas B cent per hour, and it has before the latter the immense advantage of neither producing beat, smoke, nor carbonic acid, owing to which the air is not impurcd, 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 by turning the key, thus avoiding all danger of Are, explosion, or suffocation, as in the case of gas, if the key is left open; 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 the Lamp is portable, and can bo 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 case of Oil Lamps, (4) That the light produced is a soft and most steady one; that it never flickers, aud the flame, though being equal in power of lighting to gas, can be regulated to any degree. .. (5) That every danger of - fire js absolutely excluded, as the light will extinguish immediately, if by any accident the glass surrounding the burner should be broken. _(G) That it will burn, even intho strongest wind, completely unaffected, thus being in-, valuable 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, abouts pounds; for lighting rooms, cellars, storage houses, powder magazines (or similar places where explosives are keplj), coaches, illuminations, gardens, mines) or any other industrial purpose, Price, £1 per Lamp, delivered free to any part of the world.'
