LAMPS.

NEWLY-INVENTED PATENT DISSOLVENT
LAMPS, for burning CONCRETE OILS and ANIMAL
FAT.—The great superiority of the Light produced by the corn.
bastion of tallow, anti moat of the concrete oils, over that yielded
by the oils commonly used in lamps In England, has long attracted
the attention of those who have endeavoured to improve our means
of illumination (vide " Nicholson's Philosophical voL 1,
quoted in the " Eneyelopadia Britannlca," under the head of
" Camilm") many of whom have attempted, by various mechani-
cal contrivances, to overcome the obstacles a hith the want of fluidity
in those substances presented. Hitherto, however, their efforts
have either been altogether unavailing, nr so partially successful as
not to answer any useful purpose. It is under these circumstances
that the Patent Diasolvent Lamps ate now offered to the public, by
whom they will be found not only capable of melting and burning
animal fat (including dripping), cocoa-nut, and other concrete oils,
but petal), prefixable to the lamps hitherto used (particularly in
winter) for the burning of common oils • the heat rendering them
move fluid and intismmable. Independent of the brilliant light
produced by the combustion of the substances before-mentioned,
other important advantages will result from their use: amongst
these, a total absence of smoke and smell, the impossibility of
spilling the material when the lamp is not lighted, and, finally, the
important saving (compared with fish-oil °, gas) of upwards of one-
half of the expense—a pound of any of them being more than
equal in durability to a pint of spermaceti oil.
To be had in every variety of shape and kind. including French
and Sinumbra Lamps, of M. JOSE, at the Show-moot of Mr.
HETHERINGTON'S LAMP-MANUFACTORY, No. 21,
