THE APPLICATION OF THZ ELECTRIC LIGHT POE
tkalwara AT BRA.—The application of the electric light
to the purpose of signalling was practically tested an
Thursday-, when the Conflance left Davenport harbour at
half-past 7 p.m., and steamed into the offing displaying the
electric light (invented by Profeseor Way, and superior to
any yet produced) until 9 o'clock. At a distance of 13 mile
it @Mee brilliantly, emitting a ooncentrated light of an
intensely height bluish hue. The qsaim of signalising
by this light is by long and short flashes, upon a similar
I principle to that of positive and negative signals.
The trial on Thursday evening did not extend to the
use of the signals, but merely to the display of the
light A farther trial was made on Friday evening,
when signals were continued for several hones between the
Conflance (at the east and of the breakwater), and the se-
maphore, Mount Wise, with much satisfaction. The plan
of signalising by means of the electric light seems to be
very simple, although it appears improbable that it can he
worked with regularity but by a:dent:Mc men. For instance.
two short flashes and two long ones denote 7, representing
the letter C, and so on, until the words signalled are
formed. The light has been worked by Mr. Evans,
analytical chemist, of London. The Professor and he
attendant, Captain Ram, Lieutenant Columb, flag lieute-
nant of the Dockyard ; Brigade-Major Kirk, and savers!
naval and military officers besides have been present to
watch the signals, which were continued until an early hour
on Saturday morning.
