The latest American INVENTION. THE VICTORY OF ELECTRICITY. Since Electricity has been applied for lighting purposes, all efforts of inventors have been directed to construct a lamp for general domestic nse. 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 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 use ,ful and popular, must be portable, like an oil lamp, and contain the generator of electricity in itself, it., 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 machi nery, conductors, nor any expensive out ay, and is neither complicated, not dis agreeable 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 per hour), and it has before the latter the immense ad vantage of neither producing heat, smoke nor carbonic acid, owing to which the air is not imputed, 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 fire, explosion or suffocation, as in the case of gas, if the key is left open ; and k must be conceded that this advantage alone is invaluable. It is fur ther preferable to any known kind of ighUng 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 be removed like any oil lamp from one place to another 3. That it neither requires the disagree able 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 mbit steady one; that it never flickers, and the flime, though being equal in power of lighting to gas, can be regulated to any degree. 6. That every danger of fire is abso lutely excluded, as the light will extin guish immediately, if by any accident the glass surrounding the burner should be broken. 6. That it will burn, even in the strong est wind, completely unaffected, thus be ing 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 incnes; weight, about 5 lbs ; for lighting rooms, cellars, storage houses, powder magazines or similar places where explosivesjtre kept, coaches, illuminations, gardens, mines, or any other industrial purpose. Price, LI per lamp, delivered free to any part o! the world. B medium size.

Medical. Q N E WORD. Dkab Fkixnds— W« have some hesita tion in addressing yon in the manner fol lowing, bat hope that it will not be looked at in any invidious light, when we state that it Is only oar 'regard for your health that causes us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have in the long course of this time manufactured certain Medicines that being based on scientific formula and absolute care and precision in manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far in advance of any other Pharmaceuti cal Preparations of the day. How suc cessful we have been in this, Is only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Haydock s New Liver PilL We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find .in Haydock’,, New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Vlctorlps of Science- Electric TelegraplU, Steam and Printing —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet ter. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming much as to their merit, the remarkable dis covery of Dr Hayduck has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys tem. The Dootdiit, whose vast doses of four or five pilis enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay dock’s New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomaeh in perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its func tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained. i
