EXCHEQUER.-(THIS DAY.)

(Sittings at Nisi Prius, at Westminster, before the LORD
CHIEF BARON and a Spacial Jury.)

DIGOLE r. LONDON AND BLACKWALL RAILWAY

COMPANY.

This action was brought by the plaintiff, who is a
contractor for public works, against the London and
Blackwell Railway Company, to recover from them the
sum of 1,7001., for works executed by him upon the line.
Sir Frederick Thesiger, Mr. Knowles, and Mr. Hather•
ton appeared for the plaintiff; and the Attorney-Gene-
ral for the defendants.
From the statement of Sir F. THEIRUER, who opened
the case, it appeared that in the month of August, 1848,
the Blackwell Railway
ing their line, withits stationary engine, ropes, and pu!-
lies, into a line for locomotive engines, and accordingly
issued an advertisement to the public for tenders for the
execution of the necessary works. On the 19th of Oc-
tober, after seeing the specifications, the plaintiff sent in
a tender in the following terms :—" I hereby propose to
execute the relaying of the permanent way agree-
ably to the specifications, as set forth at the office of
Mr. Locke, the engineer of the company, in John-
street, Adelphi, for the sum of 1,4361. 19s. No notice
was taken of this until the 28th of September, whea he
was requested to attend a meeting of the directors on
the 3d of October, and on appearing before them on
that day he was informed that his tender was accepted.
He complained that he would have to incur consider-
able expense in collecting his plant and his labourers to-
gether in consequence of the length of time which had
elapsed before his tender was accepted, and he estimated
this additional expense at 901, which sum the directors
agreed to give him, provided it. should be thought fair
and reasonable by their engineer. A contract was
drawn out by the company's solicitor, and sent on the
4th October for his acceptance, detailing the terms upon
which the work was to be performed, but it appeared to
him to be so objectionable that he refused to sign it, and
a series of communications passed between the parties
on the subject of the contract. In the meantime, how-
ever, the works were commenced, vile, on
the 11th of October, and were continued
night and day for a period of three or four
weeks, but considerable interruption took place
in consequence of the company having contracted with
other parties for bridges and arches over whom the plain-
, tiff had no control, and he could not get possession of
those portions of the line on which they were engaged.
On the 28th of November, the contract being still unex-
ecuted, the company served a notice upon the plaintiff
expressly forbidding him to interfere with any works on
the railway, as he had refused to comply with their sti-
pulations, and they took upon themselves the completion
of the line by means of the pliintiff's workmen, whose
services they secured. The company alleged that as the
plaintiff had refused to execute the contract they were
entitled to dismiss him without any compensation for
the work and labour done, and consequently the present
actionwas instituted to recover the:amount claimed.
The ATTORNEY-GENERAL, at the conclusion of the
above opening, submitted that the plaintiff. ought to be
nonsuited, first on the ground that the action could not
be maintained as the contract was not under the common
seal of the company, the company being a corporation;
also on the ground that the action being for a breach. of
an alleged contract, it could not be brought as an action
on the case and not for work and labour done.
The Cniai-BanON, however, overuled
.these objections,
being of opinion that the action was maintainable, not-
withstanding the contract was not sealed.
A verdict was ultimately taken by agreement for the
plaintiff for the full amount, subject to a reference, and
to an application to the Court below, for its opinion upon
the objections taken by the Learned Attorney-General.

the case, and that the verdict was contrary to evidence.
Their Lordships disallowed both these objections, and
