Wise /electric Light.
We gave recently a" resume of the progress
• which Mr. Edison has made towards perfeet-
ing (bit electric light, but theme are many
Thomases who disbelieve the reported sue.
cede of the latest discoveries'. Some of their
opinions may be interesting to our readers,
and we therefore reproduce them. Prof.
• Dermas, of New York, says-" As a matter
of foot, . the application of the light for
ppirilavbaetdef.esidtenoesa • has not yet been mom.
The Superintendent of the Manhattan Gals
Works said-" The gasmen are not a bit
scared at Mr. Edison's latest discovery.
When he firet seeded out with his electric
.experiments there was considerable of a
flatter, but they are getting used to being
agreeably disappointed and they don't think
he is any nearer (bus thing he is after now
than he was in the beginning. There was the
phonograph -that he was to make such im-
provements on and render highly useful, but
it tamable only a mere toy. Oar opinion is
that Edison has failed. and we think retain-
ehr Da Malty explains clearly how he cannot
efiect a mom with hie latest plan, because
the oarbon„whatever it may be, volatizes by
tlae prolonged action of the eleotrio °uncut,
and' because the glass globes of the lamps,
even if, they are hermetically naled„ will
expand and contract by the eold of •the
surrounding atmosphere, and thus' the aie
•willbe allowed to filter tnto the globe, and
the' incandescent carbon will be consumed."
• Mr. A, M. Smith, another superintendent
of the,Manhattan Gas Work's, says : "While
we admit that the electric light is well adepted
kir the illumination of large spawn, public
aquaria, factories and the like, we do not
believe it is practicable for domestic use.
We experimented here • with an electric
seppitrattuia (o0stitab0rits11600) to test thtei--'
pens% power and capabilities of eland°
lighting,aqd it failed to satisfy us.that it was
very `formidable as a competitor of gas. A
eircuit of 2000,feet was construated, having
a lamp en either side and one at the end' of
the loop, the current 'of electricity meeting at
• the generator. Whenever enything happened
to one light -the disarrangement of the
carbons or aome other cause -all three lights
ivent--out.-2-1'hen,--againswhen-the- carbons
-
burned More to • one side than the othet,
there WBEI a very perceptible diminution of
the light on the other oide from • whence the
greeted burning "prevailed. It was found,
also that there was a constantly varying
power in tbe light, at one time rising as .high
as fifteen hundred and then _falling off to,
three lundrod • candle power., To run two
of theee lights for twelve hours required
twelve horse power taken from the. engine,
and involving an „expenditure of two
thoussed peundo of coal.. , The engine we
use for our. exhanstero is usually run at
about twenty-five revolutions a minute,but
when employed in' connection with the
ankle raaohineSnine hundred reVolations a
minute are required, Which ' involves a good
• deal of wear' and, tear in anaghinery. With
two gas burners of 190 candle power we get
as 'much light as' the miniver= of the eleotrits
burners. The 'trouble about household
lighting by electricity would be in regulating
the supply for each dwelling. The house
headset to the Tian :where the electric'
machine might. be stationed would have the
advantage of houaes further away, though it
to be supposed varying coils of reeistance
would be introduced to militate the supfily, I
-fetiffini 'then, so militia a fluid it% electricity,
• that 'long continued experiments would be
• neoedsary to furnish houses with a uniform
quantity of light, end, on the.whole, I don't
think
11 10 predicable." -
