LAW INTELLIGENCE. (THIS DAY.) COURT OF BANKRUPTCY. Ware Yr. Maim, Registrar.) IA RE WILLIAM coserm . . . fhe bankrupt, deserihod as formerly of Battersempsu•k, „ad Ist. a prim:mein the queen's Prison, is well known freest f..-pient moil perievenes applications made by his wife, tone to time, to the various courts of law and equity, ,„..!4_,ln his discharge from prison. Those applications, it may I, n oionbered, were invariably unsucceesful ; but at length r. , !ief came from an uoexpected quarter. Mr. Hallett, th e 1 , ~drAr, visited the Queen 's Prison on the lath ult., and, wah s stroke of his pen, knocked off Mr. Cobbett's long corn totter. and bade him go free. His discharge was se , oquoiol only by one condition—that he should be made h.oltropt. Against this Mr. Cobbctt vehemently protested : 'rot. the avowed that he had never been a trader ; but this, Mr. flulitt showed him, was perfectly immaterial wider the new act ; and neat, that he was not a debtor at all—in ( A ct, that he "owed no man anything ;" Ind i ca' the victim of an naprit ineareenthion foe alleged contempt of court by th e son-payment of code. The registrar, however, over riled this objection also ; and, deeming Mr. Colibett • debtor within the meanie.; of the act, adjudicated him • tenkrupt as from the nth of September, Pkei. This was the Mat sitting for the proof of debts and choice of .mo.mees. The lunkrupt, when examined before the registrar, made th e following statement :—I have been in this prison ekes the llth July, I , Cie., under a false arrest. Ulan sot bees a trader since 153.5.

Several persons an still in a eery okligial state: At St. Thomas's Hospital, 19 poor creatures skill remain in a state of great suffering, viz, 14 mea sad boys, and five females. Aesoept the went nen is that of William Vacua, the polise-onstable, who has sustained severe laceration es his back and chest es well as serious internal injuries. Sarah Harding lies in the Dorcas Ward in a precarious state. Mazy Goldsmith and Fanny Robin son are also pronounced to be in great danger ; and so us Rose Motlock and Elisabeth Goldsmith. Fraecis Cunning ham, a boy only 14 years of age, is so fearfully crushed that his recovery is also considered doubtful. The other sufferers are stated to be going on more favourably. At Chariag•cross Hospital two of the sufferers have so far Twinned as to be able to have the hospital, which they did darbg Monday night, and the only person remaining there from the accident is a son of Mr. Inspector Mitchell, who is programing most favourably, sod strong hopes are enter tained that he will be able to leave the institution by to morrow. At Guy's Hospital the two boys, Reader and Towniend, still remain in every precarious condition. Then were aged respectively 11 and 12 years. Being at the bottom of the vault they received the weight of many of the others, who fell upon them as well as the heavy iron and stone work. Only one sufferer remains in the Westminster Hospital, viz, William Hutchinson, of 189, Waterloorced. This is, perhaps, as bad a case as any of the preceding, for besides other injuries both his inns are broken. The greatest excitement still continues to prevail in the neighbourhood, end the question on all sides is na turally asked why was the pavement allowed to remain is such a ricketty state, esp:cially an the parish authorities had given orders to the owners of the houses to arch up each grating!

Yesterday evening at an inquest taken by Mr. Bedford in the Board-room of the Workhouse, St. George's, Hanover...mare, of no public importance, sad oonclurkd late, Mr. Turner, summoning officer, gave him information of the following mysterious death of a respectably dressed person, about 30, on Seturday night last, in the Serpentine. About seven o'clock as two gentlemen on their way to Kensington-gate were pawing the Serpentine they were suddenly alarmed by hearing cries of " Help—Help me." The voice was apparently that of • man, and it came from the direction of the Serpentine. The gentlemen went to the Royal Humane Society's receiving-bonse,where they saw Mr. Williams, the superintendent, who inune4l - went off with the drop. On their way, Mr. Williams was surprised to see that one of the pleasure boats had been removed from its moor ings, and it was found some time after at • distance from its place. Mr. Williams promptly employed the drags, and in a short time diacovered the body of a man, well dreamed, which lie took to the receiving.house. There were no signs of life, nor was this likely from the length of time the deceased bail been in the water. He had on a black coat and waistcoat, with a pair of trowels of the seine colour, and there was 1/. 18*, in gold and salver in his pockets. One of the flaps of his coat wan in a pocket of his coat, and there was _a pair of boots with India-rubber tope in the bout, which had the appear an wof only having been worn once. The boat wee found on the north side of the Serpentine. The body was re moved tolls' dead house of the workhouse, Mount street.

We have authority for stating that the ne gotiations for the proposed loan of 2,000,0001. or 4,000,0001. sterling to the French go vernment, by Messrs. Baring Brothers, and other capitalists, have suddenly been broken off, owing, it is stated, to the necessary securities (Three per Cent. Rents.) not having come forward. It is surmised, however, that the real cause of this result is the publicity which has been given to the affair, which appears to have much annoyed the French government. The money market here will probably now become easier. Consols were rather dull at the opening, but have since improved, on the failure of the proposed French loan. British railway stocks are steady, the principal change being a rise in Caledonian, on the announcement of the proposed dividend at the rate of si per cent. per annum. At Paris this morning, according to Mr. Renter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Relates opened at 71fr. 32c., being about the same as yesterday. India Five per Ceuta. are firm, at 106} to f. Consols are officially marked 921, 93, and 921 for money, and 921 and 93 for the account. The present quotations are 921 to 93 for cash, and 93 to I for the account. The official business reportis as follows :—Bank Stock, 240, 242 ; ThreeperCents. Reduced, 93, ; New Three per Cents., 93, 1, 921, 933 ; New Two-and-a-Half per Cents., 771; India Five per Cent. stock, 1061, I, ; ditto Four per Cent. Debentures, 1864, 100 ; Four per Cent.

Turkish Biz per Cents. are also lower at 84f to 85 the 1854 loan, and 75 to for that of 1858. Moorish scrip is quoted sto prem. Salta are recorded as follows :—Brazilian Four-and a-Half per Cents., 1868, 911 ; Equador New Conso lidated, 181,19, 18f, ; Italian Five per Cents., 671, f, f (exchange, Mfr.) ; Moorish Scrip, prem. ; Mexican Three per Cents., for account, 341, 34, f ; Portuguese Three per Cents., 1853, small, 471 ; Russian Five per Cents., for account, 981 ; ditto Four-and-a-Half per Cents., 1880, 92} ; Spanish Three per Cents., for account, 54f, 631 ; ditto New Deferred Three per Cents., for account, 431 ; ditto Passive, 191, 1 ; the Com mittee's Certificates, 71 ; Turkish Six per Cents., 1854, 85 ; ditto Six per Cents., 1858, for account, 751, 75 ; ditto Guaranteed Four per . Cents., 102, div. The demand for money continues active, both at the Bank of England and in the open market. Little or no business is done below per cent., and in many quarters an advance upon the Bank minimum is demanded. The demand experienced for the shares in some of the new marine insurance companies, and the increased readiness with which capital is being sub scribed for several other projects more recently launched, are calculated to render new joint stook enterprise more active. The French official journal has been indulging in one of those equivocating contradictions whose only purpose can be to mislead, and its habitual assertion of which has acquire d for this print a discreditable sobriquet sounding in French not unlike its title of "Le Meniteur." It is declared that the statement of the English Jour nabs, that the French government has negotiated 5. loan in London, is " wholly erroneous." The Menitenr is playing with its readers, and at the same time lowering yet further its own character. If the French government., wishing to " rig " the market, commissions certain agents in Paris, and its agents, to facilitate this questionable opera tion, make certain arrangements in London, those arrangements are as much for account of the French government as though it, the principal in the affair, stepped direct into the Lon don market. There is a limit (at least on this aide of the Channel) to the public capacity to tolerate glaring equivocation and perversion of truth, no matter if they are witnessed in quarters where the moral atmosphere is held to be akin to that surrounding the French throne itself. There have been a number of transactions in London during the last few days in the Turkish Six per Cent. Loan brought out by M. Mires. An instalment of 20 per cent. fell due yesterday on the Moorish Loan of 426,0001. The scrip was last quoted 5i to 5} prem. Thu monthly return of the Bank of France will be published on Friday next. It is said that the coin and bullion, which were last stated at 12,267,0001, have increased considerably. The fortnightly settlement iu shares and foreign stooks will commence to-morrow (" continuation day"), and terminate on Friday. Bar gold to the amount of 35,0001. was with drawn trim the Bank yesterday for the Continent. The Arabia has arrived from New York with 51,0001. in specie, and the Baxonia with 44,5001. The Ethiope, from the West Coast of Africa, has brought about 8,5001 in gold dust. The shipments of specie and bullion by the steamer Delta, on the 12th, will comprise 289,5351., of which 8,5001. is gold and 249,0351. silver tor Bombay, and 32,0001 gold for Alexandria. Tue Liverpool cotton market yesterday was firm, and the sales have increased to 10,000 bales.
