WHITE MUSTARD SEED. H iving derived great benefit from taking the White Mustard Seed, I feel )r resistibly impelled to publish what I know of its virtue; hoping that others may thereby be tempted to try it, and may experience, in like manner, its salu tary effects. This publication m y be tne means ot relieving many leHow be ings from extreme suffering; but should 1 hear o a sing'e one, I shill b more than re ar led for my pains I shall contemplate it witii feelings which I would not exc'Hnga with the warrior monarch, who has desolated countries, and ruined the rep jsc oi thou-and. 1 w.lt make a brief and simple statement of facts; and, to prevent suspicion of fiction, subsc ibe my proper name. For more than twenty five years prior to December, 132B, I had bee ) suoject to frequent ad violent attacks of the sick head ache; sometimes two or three io 1he coure '.fa month. I believe that I never escaped an attack longer than a month, except om e, insumme?, in the Western country, when I had nothing of it tor about tvo months, during which tirpe 1 slept in the open air in the woods, and travelled on foot every day eigh teen to twenty-five miles. But the .Mustard See.i are far preferable. About the fu'st of last December, Doctor Cooke's Treaties on White Mustard Seed falling into my hands, I was o struck with the force of his reasoning, that resolved on giving them a fair trial ', according to his directions. 1 did so: took the seed four or five weeks, and have not had a spell of the sick headache since. In Alar 1 felt symptoms of an attack from my old enemy, but on having recourse to Mustard Seed, 1 checked his approaches in(inte.r. I continued about a week fortifying my citadel with the same materials; and not having discovered any hostile movement si icc, I have no reason to apprehend an attack in future. I know a young lady who has been cured of the same disease, by the same means. Oae of mv sisters whose liver was affecte i,took Mustard Seed and is well. A gentleman (form rly a Surgeon in the Navy,) who was in the same house whilst I wa3 under this cour?e cf Mustard Seed, was, on reading but a few paes of the treaties, inspired with faith enough to. try the seed for his complaint. He had suffered for years with severe disease of the stomach nd viscera; and having t"ied without effect, almost every prescription, he had nearlv concluded that his disease was irremediable. But he had not taken the mus'ard Seed Ion ger than two weeks wncn he declared himself cured. He said thai he had noi known a well day pVior thereto, for six years- and added, that the Mustard Seed. acted like magic. He took them in moderate doses, in molasses. Very few person; find any difficulty in taking them; though they must be swallowed whole three times a day. and
usually from two to four teaspoonsl'ork which promises so much good to
full at a dose. Th y should be taken an hour before breakfast, an hour after dinner, and the third do?c an hour before going to bed. Persons who dine later than 4 o'cl ck, should take the second dose an hour before, instead of after dinner. Ttie seed should be well washed before taken, to free them from dust or other vicious matter which may adhere to them from negligence in the persons who prepare tbem for market. Those who experience any difficulty in taking them in cold water, or without any thing, would do well to pour a little hot water on them. This immediattlv produces a mucilage which renders them more easily i , . to be swallowed. But at all events they ! L Til. i A'tV 1. !.

It is situated on a beau dose of so of Epsom salts, or Seidlitz pow- tiful and healthy bluff on the eastern side

Whilst taking the Mustard Seed, a rigid abstine. ce from all kinds of ardent spirits, wines, and fermented liquors must be observed, or the Mustard Seed will have very littb. if any effect. And I would advise such a nrfnr ho.,Hh tr r'son,in oraerio i nscistr, io continue mis rigid abstinence. It were well also to use no vinea-ar eat pickles no rawvtgetablea very spav of cabbage, and other greens, and if all kindsuse no milk, except aud tea, unless it be well boiled.
I have always been exceedingly fond
some of these things; of milk in particu ar (it is a great promoter of sick-headache;) but I have nearly quit them all. I know that any habit may be broken, and nny prPmsily controlled; and he who would not do all this, and more, for the sake of health, why let Aim, (as Cobbett ?ays,) be sick he ought to be sick and 1 would almost add, he deserves to die. JOSIAH F. POLK. Washington City, July22d, 1829. CANAL CELEBRATION. The celeoration of the opening of the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal took nlace on Saturday last, r rom the tol. lowing correspondence it will be seen hat the President of the United States was invited to attend upon the occasion ; but found it out of his power to comply with the reque-t. To Gen. Andrew Jackson, President cf the United States. Sir: The Chesapeake &: Delaware canal being now navigable, the President and Directors propose celebrating the termination of their labours in the c urse of the ensuing month. Gratefully aware of the irtcrest with which you have regarded their p, ogress in thi-important work, they have permit ted themselves to indulge a h-pe, that ou would not refuse further to honour them by witnessing its completion. Taey have accordingly directed us to invito your presence, and to solicit, m their name, that you would be pleased to indicate a d.y on which it will comport with your convenience to assist in the elebration. We arc, sir, with the highest respect, your most obedient servant. J.K.KANE, ROBERT M. LEWIS, WILLIAM PL A T T, Chesapeake and Delaware Canal Ofiice, Philada., Sept. 29, 1829. ; To Messrs. J. K. Kane,. R. M. Lewis, and W. Piatt. Washington, Oct. 2d, 1829. Gentlemen: I have received your very polite note of the 29th ultimo, invi ting me to be present at the opening of the Chesapeake and Delaware canal, arid to participate with you in the cele bra.'ion of the labours that hav e accom
plished this happy event, on any day ofiDiebitsch was still halting in Adio, and
tins month which 1 might designate. The importance of the occasion, and the flattering reference to my convenience as to the period for his celebration, furnish the greatest inducements for my compliance with your wishes; but great a3 they are, the urgency of my public duties forces me to forego them. I he few days which I pent at the Rip Raps, and the accumulation of business during my late indisposition, admonish me that I shall have no time to spare between this and the approaching session of Congress; and that I must decline both the honour of appointing the day for the celebration, and the pleasure of rejoicing with you at the completion of a the Union. You will have however, my fervent wishes for its success and for that of all othc r similar internal improvements. Accept, I pray you a tender of my sincere respects for the body whn h you represent on this occasion, and for yoursvlves individually, gentlemen, the assurance of my great regard. i have the honor to be your most obedient servant. ANDREW JACKSON. INDIANAPOLIS. This town was laid off in the fall cf 'the vear 1321, on one of four sections of . - i land, donated bv the United States, to the State of Indiana, for the location of , . r . i . , .. iof White river, which together with Fall creek and Pogue's run, flows through the donation. The almost unrivnlied (advantages of its position, are beein to attact that general share of mand. Po-sessing the advantage of roads leading in every direction, it is a rallying point for travellers and emi grants; which gives a great impulse to its prosperity. The crrowth of the place its being the capital of tlie State, is in!
tnenearrot a country well watered andjnone more agrecible to me than that not surpassed in point of fertility of soilj w hich has to-day summoned me to emoy
by any region in North America, and capable of sustaining an agricultural and
manufactunng population as dense as the king, my master, to assure your sobthat of France or Germany. Thiscoun- limily that it is his constant wish to maintry has been settled by a cla?3 of farnv rs, tain and to extend the friendship which remarkable for their industry, agricultu-jha3 subsisted for centuries between the
ral knowledge and enterprise; and a3 en - lib-ral and moral as those ot any other section of the Union. White River is navigable for flat boats, the distnnce of 100 miles above, and 300 miles below, to her mouth. Steam boats have ascended to Spencer, fifty miles below ; and it is deemed practica
oflble to render the river as far as this
place, navigable for boats ol that description, at a high stage of water. Altho' laid off in 1821, Indi mapoli did not commence improving, otherwise than in the building of a few sylvan huts, until the year 1821. From that time to the present, the lapse of five years has produced an astonishing change, and located on the donation, a population variously estimated at from 1000 to 1300; a suitabb-portion of whom are engaged in most of the mechanic arts, and learned professions, and all industriously pursu ing their respective avocation with eve ry success. It is altogether worthy ol remark that we here witness, an unusual morality and a great reverence for religion, and that we are blessed with Sua day Schools and all the philanthropic, charitable and literary societies and institutions which adorn the present age.

The report of a baitf . iuving taken place between the belligerar.js near Constantinople, is not confirmed. Gen. instead of his advanced force ha vine reached Kirk Kili3:i, it was only ai Faki: the general was inundating the country with proclamation?, In which he guarantees safety to the Turks and earnestly mlreals them to remain quieily in their dwellings: his appeal had so far succeeded that many who fled had returned home. The Russians have been much harassed in their rear, and on the 7ih Aug. the grand vizier made a desperate sortie upon the Russian corps of observation before Chournin, and drove them from their positions, capturing, it is said, G,000 prisoners, ard compelling thorn to retreat to Jeni B z ar. The Turks appear to have r gained the possession ot Rachova, and pu the inhabitants of Little VVallachia in fear of an invasion. .

Manufactures of iron in and about Pittsburgh. Upon diligent inquiry, we learn that there are consumed annually, in the different foundries, rolling mills. I . r l n and steam engine factories, in and about Pittsburgh, pit thousand tons of blooms, and five thousand tons of pig metal. These articles are brought principally down Ihe Monongahela and Allegheny rivers. Last year considerable quantities were brought up from Ohio and Kentucky, and contracts have lately been made for a large quantity from Tennessee. There are nine foundries, which use about 3,500 tons of pig metal, and employ about 225 hands. The rolling mills are eight in number, and are now chiefly employed in rolling Juniata blooms, of which they use about 6,000 tons. They also consume about 1,500 tons of pig metal, and employ about 320 hands. There are nine nail factories which manufacture daily about 1 8 tons of nails, and employ about 130 hands. There are :l3o seven steam engine
factories, in which are employed aluii'. 210 hands. Aa yet but three sleam en
gines have been sent east of the moun tain four or five to the northern laker, and one to Mexico. Within two or three years past, the casting of sugar kettles, sugar mills, and small steam en gines to drive them, for the planters of Louisiana, has become a very important branch of our manufactuiing business, and is increasing. In addition to the metal and blooms above mentioned, a large quantity of bar iron is brought to Pittsburgh from Juniata. Pittsburgh Gcz.
