On Friday, after the rising of the Court. the LORD Ciwrotta.oe proceeded into his private room to hear a motion of great Importance. We were not admitted into hie Losdship'e room, but we believe the following account of what took place may be relied on as strictly torriect:— Mr. BART, on the pert of the plaintiff, who is a holder of ColtiMbian Dodd", prayed an injunction to restrain the defendams, the - Contractors for the Colombian Loan fromoending any futther supplies of money (obtainmi by:Gioia.* of Colombian Bonds), to the Colombian Oa vertitnent, emit that Government should have formally rectigatimsdl the deft/Masts as the contractors, and de tiered ibsatthe Loan was raised on sufficient authority. Tbeloan CHANCELLOR, without going further into the case,asid he thought it impossible that he could copte, to a decision upon the motion in its present shape. If Ise vilrelo' [tent the injunction, he would be recog nizing the Colonibian Government, which the British Government bad not vet done. It would be a singular spectacle to see one Cabinet Minister, recognizing from the beiseii the independence of a Government, which hit colleagues bad not thought St to acknon ledge.— these circumstances, be thought it would be ne cessary teethe plaintiff to amend the form of his mo tion.' What his decision might ultimately be, he of coarse would not anticipate. This . Morning the case was again meetioned in his Lordahiple room. into which, as before, we were not per mitted to enter. In consequence of th is proceeding, we have been enable to learo the result, for the utmost se env has ham observed, and, as we aye given to under. stood, by the desire of the Lord Chancellor, who was &Woos that within, should transpire that might pre judice the parties. We may be allowed to express our regret that the cause was beard in private. The fact of the motion bein made is well known.ind the utmost anxiety to know t he particulars, is felt by thousands of persons in the metropolis, who are, perhaps, as deeply interested in t h e result, as sidles the plaintiff or defendants. T COURT OP KIND'S BENCH.--Otrit.Dn•Lt., Jmr. IS. Tel KING R. KNATCOSULL AND °TRIERS. This was an indictment against Charles Knatchbull, Esq., James Digby Powell, Gent., and John Charles Pertridge. Gent., attorneys at law, for a conspiracy to defraod Jellies Stonehouse t sod Samuel Hoffinas NocheUs. The primeontion was conducted by Mr. Gutter: and Mr. ADOI.TRUS. The defendant, Knatchbull. did not appear. and was not efended. . blesses. Powell and Partridgedefended separately. Mr. SCARLET? and Mr. PLATT were for the former; and the COMMONRiRANT and STOCKS for the latter. This was the second trial of the same indictaseat. the Court above having awarded a new trial, after a convic tion of all the defendants on the former occasion.— The following is tbe •stsbattutee of the case :—ln the year 1818 Capt. Charles Kidel:boil. one of the yellow sans of the late Sir Ed. Knatchbull,' Bart. resided for a short time et the Hoop Hotel, kept bye Mr. Warrall,io Park Street, GrosysoOr Square, and emitted. leaving a good opinion of his credit. In the ratter part a 10/0 bb retuned to Yr. %Po:rail's house, represeatlog that he -but jeet-retutood halo Naatek wisassa• big tish Consul, and rut op a bill foetal. Mr. W I . came pressing for his money, and the Captain gave Lim I is aereptacce at two months for 1001. inciading an. of St. for mug hot. Before the bill became doe. the Captain ran up 'further account for 501. and gave Mr. Worrell another hill at see month. Both these bills were endorsed by Worrell to Mess. Stonehoose sad , Nookells, his nine merchants. When the bills became due they were diehonoured. Messrs. Stonehooso and lierekelts became angry et the non payment, but in con. soiree's:o of a representation. us the part of the Captain, iliac be was entitled to 3004 legacy ander hie father's will, and one eighth share of 24,000/. under his mother's settlemeat, and was then in• litigation with the present Sir E.l. Knatehbull, his brother, and the executors and invitees for the recovery of this money. they were Is ducetto give him farther time by taking his renewed arretranoe, including a further sum for which be was indebted to Mr. Worrell. When these latter bills became doe, the Captain was in no noadition to pay them, but offered to execute to Stonehonse and Nockella an assign nient of hie legacy of 3001. doe ander, his father's will by way of collateral security. To this they agreed, and as assignment was prepared sod execnted.oo the 46th of March, 1821. On the let day of April follow ing, Captain Knatchbull absconded clandestinely io the sight tiase, from Worrall's.Hotel. carrying sway with him *Ott, valuable in his possession. It was soon' after warde'slistorered that the assignment of the legacy in qepation *ea - absolutely worthless, the legacy having been satisfled as tiny as the 4th of January. 1840, and that Mr deltas whlabilie Captain hid under his mother will had heeo then discharged. These were the leading facts of thecae waled Mr. Knatebbnll, who now made defisaoc. tad the quesann was. whether the other de fendants could be implicated in the transaction ? To anatain the ease against them, the following facts were given in evidence :—When Mr. Knatchbull proposed to assign the legacy, he referred Worrell, Stosehouse. and Nockellt, to M . Fewell and Partridge, his so l'cirors, to satiety them that he was entitled to it under his father's will. soil also to one-eigth share of 94,000/. under his mother's settlement. This statement Fowell and Partridge confirmed, tied they represented that they had' been before employed by Mr. John Knatebboll, another brother of Sir Verard"e, to recover from the latter his legacy of 3001. ; that the aronet bad used his brother extremely ill ; that it became necessary to file a bill in Chancery against him, and that be did not pay the legacy until he had been served with a sabposna from that Court. It was proved that M . Rowell end Partridge were extremely anxious to have the preparation of the deed of assignnsept, mid had in fact prepared a draft, in whirls they stipulated that Stone lease and Nrockells should not see Captain Knatchbull 4rl his bills until there.bad been • decree made in I . I.vscery respecting his claim to the - legacy •, but the parties interested would not permit alit the deed should be so prepared. A deed iris prepared by Messrs. Stone house and Nockells, attorneys, but Powell and Partridge were anxious that an application should be made to the' execwors, representing that it would be useless, inas much as they h a d had occasion to write repeatedly tol t dem respecting Air. John Knatchbull'slegacy,hut that ,the executors tunic no notice of their letters, and they 'ere therefore obliged to compel paynient by a suit in Chlecery. The troth of these representations was rx. pressly deeded hy . Sir Rdward Knatchinttli the perms torre!andione of the trustees, from whose evidence it appeared that Mr. John Keetchbull's claim had been 8 ,006. 4 1 is INA without any litiga•ion whatever, and that Mr. Charles' claims had. been discharged as early .1114elstinag, Irt4o. Under ffis o ss circuieljosies it was alleged ibetillessrs. 141;411,0T Partrikie had i guilty knell. that Cayitain K l atch ttill'alegiey had been (Hoak" et et the dine chi iiiiiiistatiar in qbestioa .ivis ' ,refute so as to bring Mehl - within tjse scope of this' indiament.' d h Mr. SCAIWITT ILL the NINON • q lIROXANT t h en SP. v•rallie addressed the Joey, err behalf of 'ash of their s tir r ers; rospeetivoly. emit able and powerful argainents, c ontended that there was not the slightest evil ease to aluct M-ssrs. Forel' and Partridge with the knowledge. of the tact, that Captain Koatchbull had been paid hie legacy at the thine the assignment was executed. The solegnestion for the Jury war, whether Messrs. Fowelt and Partridge believed the representation made to the= by Captain Knatebbull, as to the state of his property? The case from first to last negatived the presumption that they knew the real state of his affairs. Their open sad undisguised senduct throughout the transaction was the most decisive evidence of their innocence. First, their applying to him whilst be was abroad to be employed by hie. in recovering his legacy in like manner as they had been employed by his brother; second, their wit lingness to deliver over'all the papers in their possessfon in February. 18!l, to the prosecutor's solicitors; ind third, their conduct from the 27th of February to the 2fith of March, when the deed was executed—were all circumstances ;hewin g i that they acted in a manner per fectly consistent with nnocence, because if guilty, they exposed themselves to the peril of being detected every moment; rind this too without any motive on their put. Pecuniary advantage could not be their object. because Captain Knatclibull was then perfectly destitute, sad the utmost that coati be attained even for the latter, was a short suspension of legal proceedings agaitsst him. An immense number of nit , clients of the de fendants, as well as professional men. gave the defend ants the highest possible character for integrity, pro bity, and honour through the whole of their professional lives. Mr. Sergeant Pell was also called to the defendants' characters, and speaking professionally, without nay knowledge of them privately, he said. he bad always considered them as gentlemen of strict honour and inte grity, as attorneys. 'About a quarter to six, and before all the witnesses to character were called, the.lary interposed, and said,they bad made op their minds. The Calm Juarice said, that if they were of opinion that the difitsdints did fidt knew that Ciptain Knatcb bull had been paid his legacy at the time the assign meat was executed. and found their verdict of not guilty, on that ground, be should be perfectly satisficl with the verdict. The Jury said they seers satisfied. and found the defendants all—Not Guilty. OLD BAILEY, JAL. 18. Stephen Wilke was indicted for bigamy, he having unlawfully intermarried with Mary Anne Whitehead, his first aed lawful wife, Anne, being still alive. The proofs were quite clear and conclusive against the prisoneratwho, in his defence, entered into a long nar ration of the persecutions which be bad undergone from his firs Life. He said be laid been awned to her while he was himself in a state of intoxication. The Jury found the prisoner thrifty, but recommended him to mercy, on account of the unhappy nature of Iris drat mart e. Mr. Justly BURROUOU said be should feel it his duty to transmit tie recommendation to the proper quarter; bat the prisoner's was a grievous offence, and the tecond wife had been cruelly deceived by him. Bennett Collier was indicted for stealing from Mr. Mortigni, a printseller, seven prints framed and glazed.

The LORD CRISP BARON, in summing up, said, that in acting on the statute which made the stealing of 40i in a dwelling houses capital felony, it was important ter ob , that the 40s. must be the amount of property stolen at any one time. Mr. Mortigni, in his evidence. valued the goods considerably more than 499. The'prisoner protested his innocence of the robberf.

Pearce, the boy who was capitally convicted some 'time since of stealing silver blanks for crown pieces, from thellint, was indicted far stealing on the 2d of November last certain quantifies of gold from the, same house or melange.

The foots of the case were these:—ln the latter end of April, or beginning of May last, Captain John Pete► Wil son, of Ste Myths, east Indianian, sent his wearing apparel •and lines., to the amount of *Md. to Mr. James Wilkins. of Dove-row, Hackney-Melds, a bleacher, to be scoured ; they having lost their colour from their being used on a voyage to the East indlis.

Pail of this property had been pledged with Mr. Chatters. pawnbroker, Watlinr street, and the question to he decided was, Whether under the circumstances the Magistrate was legally empowered. under the Statute, to make as order for the re-delivery of the goods to Captain Wilson, without Mr. Chafers being reimbursed the money lent upon them?
