This maxim is applied by Lord Coke to courts, and terms of law; mmorttas being un derstood in the sense of difference, inferiority, or qualification.

An alteration In a former building, by adding to its height, or to its depth, or to the extent of its in terior accommodations, is merely an "altera tion," and not an "addition."
