The Sultan.
CLARE KENNETH,

We came across the other day a brief
sketch OF the Sultan of Turkey, which
may be Of much interests
Abdul Hamid, the present Sultan of
Turkey, is a brother of the unfortunate
Murad, who preceded him, and was de-
posed, and is a younger son of the Sultan
Abdul Medjid. His advent to the Turk
lSh throne was sudden; for Murad. after
very brief reign, became insane, and
thus was untitled to govern. At the time
OF his accession the world knew abso-
utely nothing of young Abdul Hamid.
Less than thirty years of age, with but
remote prospect of ever ascend1no the
throne, he had always led the obscure
ana retired life to which all Turkish
princes OF the blood are subjected. Ola
sudden ne appeared ON the pinnacle OF
power and that at a moment when.
above all things, experience and states.
manship seemed to be needed TO save
the turkish Empire in Europe from de-
Struction.
II soon appeared that Hamid was an
adler and more energetic man than his
brother He devoted himself with zeal
10 his most difficult duties; he proved
lree from many of the debasing vices
winch have disgraced the lives Of 50
many Sultans; and he showed too much
sense to cling obstinately to despotic
power at a time when wisdom Law in con-
session and Cancellation. The Sultan
Abdul Hamid is described as rather fall
and slight in form, with an oval and
Swarthy face, large dark eyes, and short
'olacK hair, while he wears lone

The Latest American Invention.
THE VICTORY OF ELECTRIcITY.

a IT.
Since Electricity has been applied for light
ing purposes, all efforts Of inventors have
been directed to construct lamp for general
domestic use. 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, in
stead of first laying down the principle that a
Lamp which should ever become generally
useful and popular, mus be portable, like an
Oil Lamp, and contain the generator Of Elec-
tricity in itself, l. G., in the foot Of the Lamp.
The Norman Electric Light Company has
at last succeeded in completely realizing 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 Machin-
cry, Conductors, nor any expensive outlay,
and is neither complicated nor disagreeable 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 ~ cents
per hour), and it has before the latter the i'm.
mense advantage of neither producing heat,
smoke nor carbonic acid, owing to which the
air is not inquired, and remains at the same
!
lutely 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 sufiocation, as in the case
of gas, if the key is left open and it must be
conceded that this advantage alone is invalu
able. 1t is further preferable to any known
kind of lighting for the following reasons;
(I.) Its manipulation is SO simple that any
child can keep it in order.
(2.) That the Lamp is portable, and can bC
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 tn,
cylinder, as in the case of Oil Lamps.
az That the light produced is soft AMI
most steady one that it never flickers, anC
the fame, though being equal in power o
lighting to gas, can be regulated TO any de
gree.
(5) That every danger of fire is absolutel,
excluded, as the light will extingush immedi
ately, if by any accident the glass surrounding
the burner should be broken.
(6) That it will burn, even in the stronges
wind, completely unaffected, thus being in
valuable for Examinations, lighting Of gardens
corridors, etc.
This Lamp is constructed for the present i

The following was clipped from the
notes of the Boston Transcript, relating
to these Islands
Your correspondent, who signs him
self Cape Colder" questions the state
ment's that we're made in your issue OF
the 23d ult., relative to the nationality
of Mr.. John Young, the grandfather of
Queen Emma of the Hawaiian Islands.
He makes the claim that Young was
true Cape Colder, &c, &c He
rts-"The authorities cited Uarves,
Bingham & Dibble) are by "no means
conclusive" Will he give us the
names of any more reliable ones in Ha-
waiian history7 They are considered
generally as the best informed writers,
who wrote from long acquaintance and
residence on the islands. The writer
was twenty years resident on the
islands. 1t was his good fortune to
know personally Mr.. Youngs four
children-two SONS, James and John,
and two daughters, Fannie and Jennie.
During all the time Of that residence,
he never heard the question raised as
to Mr. John Young's nationality being
other than English.
Hon. R. c. Wyllie, the kings minis
ter of foreign relations, by proclamation
of a8th of June and 25th of August,
1886, announced Queen Emmas des-
cent from John Young as an English
man from Lancashire, England.
In pamphlet published in England
in, 1866, on the occasion of Queen
Emma's visit to that country, where she
went in the interest of the English
Episcopal Church Mission in Hawaii,
she was alluded to as. of English extrac-
ton, and which was assumed to be a
tie to bring more sympathy to the cause.
We do not think that any one who
ever lived at the islands, and enjoyed
any acquaintance with the sold chiefs

what will fully indorse the statments
made by the writer in this and previous
note of the 23d.
