The Leclair Lamp.-I have had the celebrated
Leclair Lamp in use for some time, and have no
hesitation in pronouncng it superior as a burner,
other lamp now offered for sale. The light is
soft and luminous, and lamp of parlor size
equal to at least four sperm candles.

CAPT. Batters6y Il have now in use at my of.
Ace, the Leclair Lamp" which I obtained from
you. have given it fair trial, and am satisfied
that it is superior to any light have ever used.
The flame is soft and brilliant, giving equally as
much light as two Kerosene lamps of equal size,
and at least three sperm candles. For cheap
ness it cannot be excelled.
