Abstract
I NOTICE in an article in NATURE, vol. xix. p. 262, the following reference made to our electric light that it “does not appear to give very great satisfation through its fluctuation.” It is true that at first we were caused some trouble owing to the Serrin lamp not working properly, but having overcome the difficulty we find it in our business, where it is necessary to show colours correctly, a very great improvement on all our former trials of lighting, and moreover, in its use we are not troubled in our galleries and upper floors with the heat and fumes which with gas alight no amount of ventilation seemed to remove.
