THIS bill of complaint in the above stated cause

into a contract with the United States government,
agreeing to supply the government with five mil
lion of brick for the extension ofthe Capitol. That
said complainant, on or about the 12th day of Jan
uary. A. D. 1852, assigned to one Samuel Strong,
the said contract; the said Strong agreeing and
I promising to pay to said complainant the sum ot
tour thousand dollars.
Tne bill further states that the snid Strong, on
or about the 2d day of February, A. D. 1S52, as
signed the said contract, or one moiety thereof, to
! Amos Adatns and Isaac N. Comstock, of the city
of Albany and State of New York,and received from
the said Adams and Comstock their obligation or
promise for the payment of four thousand dollars,
or thereabout, as well as a lien of thirty per cent,
on the moneys to be paid by the government on
said contract, until the said ni^ of four thousand
dollars should be paid ; which lien said Strong
duly assigned to the complainant in this bill. The
bill further state* that sometime in the year 1852
the said Amos Adams and Isaac. N. Comstock as

The object of said bill is to obtain an injunction
"gainst said defendants inhibiting th? said James

paying the said moneys to any of the defend

the "-aid money* until the sum of thirty-six hun
dred dollars, and the interest thereon, should be
paid to the coiuulainant or bis legal representa
