 A Doctor of Divinity at Buffalo has written out and published in newspaper the Prayer offered by him on occasion ofthe Funeral Obseques of Gen. Jackson. It fills whole column, and seems to have been intended to impaft vast deal of useful information. It was published, we presume, from a profound deerence to that injunction of Christ, 'But when thou prayest enter into thy closet,' &c Seriously, this is little the most disgusting piece of religious ostentation that have lately witness sed. It reminds us ofthe exclamation made on public occasion in Fanuei Hall, after dstin- guished preacher had closed a vocal address to the Deity-'There! that is the best prayer ever made to Boston audience! ,F..s
 Election ,n .Merico-The election for Presi. dent of Mexico appears to interest the people of that republic almost as much as the Texas ques- ton.

There as here, possession is nine points in the law, and the patronage appertaining to the executive office, a powerful lever in eleyating its incumbent second time. We have reason to believe, however, that the departments will fail to effect choice by rea- son of a multiplicity of candidates. There are twenty five provinces in Mexico and the votes of majority (13) must be given to candidate to en- sure his success. Heirer will unquestiohably ob- tain plurality over any of his competitors. The most popular candidate after him is Pedraza but none of them enjoy an influence overwhelming enough to secure an absolute majority. -'rr .a
 The mode of conducting presidential election in Mexico resembles in some respects the system adopted in the United States. If any one candid ate fail to obtain majority of the votes cast. the election devolves upon the Chamber of Deputies. That assembly is bound to select President from among the two candidates having the greatest number of votes. This being the case, it is high ly probable that Herrera, the acting President will after all, be confirmed in his office His influence with Congress is yet greater than with the cleo tors, and should the choice of a President be thrown upon the Nat tonal Legislature, his success will be no longer problematical.--.E o.
