THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY.—The Assembly met on
Thursday, when Dr. Gordon was elected Moderator
without opposition. On the motion of Mr. Dunlop, a
Non-Intrusionist, the names of the three clergymen re-
turned by the Strathbogie Presbytery were struck from
the roll under a protest from Mr. Edmond, Dr. Bryce,
and otheri. The Strathbogie case will be taken up, it
is supposed, on Tuesday ; but whether the Wrongheads
have resolved to push on in their headlong 'course, or to
back out by some manoeuvre, has not transpired.

BOURSE OF AMSTERDAM, MAY 21.—The intelligence of
the check which the English Ministers received, has caused the
national funds to be heavy, and it is expected that the English
funds will fall in consequence. Ardoin's are still on the fall
without any great business doing.

The accounts received fromi Lisbon of a three •masted
steamer steering for the Azores, and supposed to be the Presi-
dent, has caused some excitement in the City this morning.
This steamer must have been the same that was seen by the
Lord Saumarez some time since. Various are the opinions
formed on the above event, and nothing of a decisive nature
can be said as yet in respect to her being the President.
