The German Empire.

Since 1871 all the states of Germany form an external union for the pro tection of the realm and the care of the welfare of the German people" For legislative purposes, under the em- peror as head. are two house of as- sembly. the upper house of the fed erated states, representing the individ- ual states, and the lower house, or "Reichstag." The former corresponds very closely to our senate, while the latter resembles our house of repre- sentatives. Germany, while theoreti- cally a monarchy, is in substance and practice as democratic a country as there is on earth. The emperor knows very well that it is no longer by divine right" but by the right of the people that he sits at the bJsad.

Court censures Plaintiff.

Waterbury-Judge Futile of the su- perior court in this city, has handed down a decision in which he denies the petition of Edward B. Stevens. of Naugatuck. against Joseph Risley ct al of New Haven for the appoint ment of a receiver for the property at the corner of Grand avenue and South Front street, Fair Haven. Mir. Risley secured the prope-ty from C. II. Ca bles of Waterbury, the latter holding a mortgage of sl4,000 on the premises. Risley claimed that he and Cables ar ranged that the mortgage should not be fereclosed until after the property had been improved, if at all Risley and his son as carpenter worked on the premises for many months and then Stevens. having bought the mort gage, started proceeding to get his money Risley claimed there was an understanding between him and Ca bles that no attempt should be made to collect the principal until after the property had been improved. In find :aS for the defendants Judge Futile said: Courts of equity should never be used as an instrument of oppres- sion. This attempt to deprive Risley of the benefits of his labor is a shock to the sense of justice. which the court holds, and should have so shocked the moral sense of this plaintiff as to have prevented him from attempting to obtain a judgment in this action. wider appreciation of the maxim that he who obtains equity must do equity" would be beneficial. the court said
