Since Electricity has been applied for lighting purposes, all efforts of inventors have been directed to construct a lamp for general domestic use. The reason why this problem has till now not been solved, is that none of tho inventors could rid themselves of the idea of gas lighting, and that all have adhered to the system of producing the Electricity in some central place, or by large machinery, 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 the generator of Electricity in itself, i.e., in the foot of the Lamp. The Norman Electric Light Co. has 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, Conductor t, nor any expensive outlay, and is neither complicated, nor disagreeable in manipulation ; all that is necessary is to refill tt every four or five days with acid. The eoit of lighting will be at cheap at gat (^ cents per hour), and it hai before the latter the immense advantage of neither producing the heat, smoke nor carbonic acid, owing to which tho 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 othorwise, but iimply by turning the key, thus avoiding all danger of fire, explosion or suffocation, as in tho case of gas, if tho key is left open ; and it must be conceded that this advantage alone ia invaluable. It ia further preferable to any known kind of lighting for the following reasons :—: — (1) Its manipulation is so simple that any child could keep it in order. (2) That the 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 case of Oil Lamp 1 ?. (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. (o) That every danger of fire is abtoluti/tj excludtd, as the light will extinguish immediately, if by any accident the glass sunounding the burner should be broken. (6) That it will burn, even in the •troneeat wind, completely unaffected, thus being invaluable tor illuminations, lighting of gardens, corridors, etc.
