DANIEL wADKINS AND THE MAN
UAL LABOR UNIVERSITY.

We have been requested 20 publish the
following report in the case Of Rev.
Daniel Watkins, pastor of one OF the
colored churches Of Nashville:
Reports prejudicial to the integrity of
Brother D. Watkins having obtained cur
rency, it became proper that the officers
of the Congregation of Christ, in Nash
vile, Tennessee, should examine into the
nature thereof, as affecting the standing
of one of its members. They find, upon
a thorough investigation, that the fol-
lowing facts have TRANSFERRED:
l. A written contract was entered into
on the 29lh day of May, 1865, between
Peter LoUcrY, president" of an insti-
tuition for colored people, known as "THe
Tennessee Manual Labor UaiUTSity,"
of the one part, and Daniel IVddktns of
the other part, witnessing that the said
Watkins engaged to devote his whole
time, for the space of six months, as an
agent for the delivery of addresses, and
the collecting of money for the sole use
and behoof of said university" upon
the conditions following, namely: That
his expenses, including board and outlay
for travelling, should be first paid out Of
anv moneys he might collect, and that
tlCO-thirdS of the balance should be duly
paid INTO the treasury of the university"
3. The charge against said Watkins,
publicly made and widely circulated, was
that he had reported a collection of more
than eleven hundred dollars in cash, and
had appropriated to his own use all but
shout two hundred dollars, the receipt of
which was acknowledge by said Lowery.
8. A careful examination of the loosely
kept book of said Watkins showed thai
he
Had collected in oash..,......... Sl,632 OF
Had paid said LOwery 40 W
His expenses amounted to-. 1872 a.
His commission $50 VAS. 2l3 Is
Total.................. ............ 81, 655 81
He claims a balance as Overpaid of
$23.63.
We are not called on to express an
oninion as to the want Of integrity, or the
contrary, implied by the said contract;
NOR to approve or condemn that system OF
agencies that is set on foot to provide fol
the, too often, idle or vicious, and to i'm
nose on the credulity of the benevolent
Int are led to conclude that the conduct
of the said Watkins was governed by
and was in strict accordance with tn
written contract and that he is, there
fore, acquitted of blame so far as charge
arising from the supposed violation 'Nrre
of are concerned. Still, out of the IL. g
sum of 81, $50, contributed by the friend
of the colOred race for the benefit of tn
above named institution, but S426.2
reached its Golfers.
We think it proper to add that the sal
eUniversity" has no connection whateve
with the Christian brotherhood in Ten
nessee.

DEAR SIR: About two years ago I was troubled
with both Inflammation Of the Kidneys and avel,
when 1 resorted to several remedies, without de-
irving any benefit whatever; and seeing your Ell
TRACT BUCHU advertised, procured few bottles

short time. l regard your Extract Buehu to be de-
cidedly the best remedy extant, for any and all
Diseases of the Kidneys, and am quite confident
that it will do all you claim for it You may pub
lish this If you desire to do so.
Yours respectfully,
