HON. R. F. KOLB Alabama Commissioner of Agriculture, Hon. R. F. Kolb, addressed a small audience at the court house last Friday. The day was so cold and disagreeable that but few farmers could attend. The speech was full of good practical suggestions to farmers, and was killed by all who had the pleasure of hearing it. The speech was not however, so stirring and live as we expected, but perhaps we had raised our sights a little too high from the live and stirring way in which he manages the Department of Agriculture. Mr. Kolb is now an open and avowed candidate for governor, which fact will be news to the Montgomery Advertiser. This fact we will vouch for, and claim that we have scooped the Advertiser in an important piece of news, which the Advertiser has been trying to get all summer. Commissioner Kolb is now 50 years of age, of stout build and well preserved, for a man of that age. He is a graduate of one of the best literary colleges in the country. He is a progressive and scientific farmer and full of energy. REED ELECTED SPEAKER - Washington , D. C. Nov. 30 – [Associated Press] Foraker, in talking about his defeat, says: I have , in my time, given the South so much discomfort that it is really a great pleasure to me to see how supremely happy I have made them now. There has not been so much universal and unalloyed joy throughout the states in rebellion since the war as they seem to be having now. The governor evidently fancies that the satisfaction in the South is mainly due to gratified animosity to himself. He makes himself of much more importance than he really is. The South, though pleased at the downfall of one who has traduced it, is chiefly gratified at the triumph of democratic principle. – [Mobile register] AN EDITOR KILLS A MAN – [Blount County News] Mr. James H. Laborus, editor of the Abbeville, Henry County, Age, shot and killed Mr. H. F. Bussey, a fruit tree agent, in the Age office on the 23rd inst. The editor of the Age, in a recent number published a sarcastic article on the duplicity of fruit tree and stove peddlers. Bussey responded in the Eufaula Times, which was replied to by Laborus in one of his severe moods. On Saturday the 23rd inst, Mr. Bussey, pistol in hand went to the Age office, and when Mr. Laborus saw him approach he took down his guna dn fired the entire load into Bussey’s face. He died in about four hours afterward. It is a sad affair, much to be regretted, but it has a moral accompanying it: Don’t fool with Dynamite or the rights and duties of an editor, which are almost synonymous; for although some of the brotherhood (like ourself) have passed the fighting period the greater number of the Alabama press are in the prime of their manhood; spunky, vigorous, young, and full of fire, not to be tampered with.

BUFFALO EXTERMINATION – Only a Thousand or Two Left out of Herds of Millions {Washington Post] – Seventy years ago there roamed over the plains and mountains of the far west nearly eight million buffaloes. Today there are less than five hundred heads of the animals in existence. There are but eighty-five head of wild buffaloes, 304 alive in captivity, and about two hundred under the protection of the government in Yellowstone Park. There is also said to be about five hundred and fifty head in the British possessions north of Montana, but this is rumor. Of the eighty five head of wild buffaloes which are known to exist, twenty-five are in Texas, twenty in Colorado, twenty-six in Wyoming, ten in Montana and four in Dakota. The statistics have been carefully gathered by the officers of the Smithsonian Institution, and it is absolutely known that the numbers stated comprises all the wild buffaloes of the world. The skeletons of the numerous herd of a score of years ago are bleaching on the western plains, a tribute to the prowess of the American Nimord. AN UNHUNG SLAVE TRADER – [London Standard] MR. DAVIS IS BETTER – New Orleans, Nov. 30 – Hon. Jefferson Davis’ medical adviser, Dr. C. J. Bickham, last night reported Mr. Davis’ condition improved over that of Thursday but anxiety on behalf of the distinguished patient is by no means removed. Any dangers that may be apprehended now arise, not so much from the complaint from which he is suffering as from his inability to receive nourishment.

The women have made confessions, implicating the men under arrest and also several others who are still at large, but who will be captured.

HOLLIS Building, Sulligent, Alabama CREW NORMAL COLLEGE The people of Crew have with one accord and with a single purpose, come together and raised nearly $2500 to found a College in their midst. A few weeks since the Rev. Dr. BLALOCK, principal of one of the leading Colleges in the state of Tennessee, was sent out by the faculty of the college to find a more healthy location for them, and in a more temperate clime, and with special instructions to not stop where the water was bade or scarce, for in their past experience they had come to realize that bad water and unhealthy localities were not the proper places to locate institutions of learning. After traveling over the entire state, at last Dr. BLALOCK stopped at Crews, and wrote his friends that the place was found. The people at once took hold of the matter and elected trustees, and set about to found the college. On Monday night last, the Trustees seeing that sufficient money had been raised to insure the building of the college, met and proceeded to make some final arrangements toward the building of the structures for the accommodation of the students. In accordance with the former agreement of trustees, that the college should be named in honor of the person making the largest donation, and Mr. T. L. CREW having made a donation of more than $600, which was the largest, the college was named for him. The college was then leased to Dr. BLALOCK for a term of six years. The building will be commenced just as soon as the material can be laid on the grounds and the proper grading and drainage is completed. The building will be located so that water from a beautiful spring will flow all through the building. It is said that by actual count there is a spring of “living water” for every hundred yards in the town.
