Dim ~ COLLI Kit.-Dickie W. Collier was born in Ogle thorpe County, July trtli. INO#, ami died iu ’Jer rell County, SCpt. Ist. 1871. . Iu reference to Mr. Collier, it may be truly said that lie was a noble- model of honesty In those days of deinorilizatiou, corruption aud dishonesty, Juall the relations of lif , -saeitixen husband, and father, be was a model man. Asa husband, he was most affectionate; as a father, devoted to bis children ; and as a citizen, was punctual in the discharge of every obligation devolving upon him as such. I ft ought to be known to his honor, that though lie was encumbered with several old debts and obligations by security and otherwise, that lie never sought to avail himself of any of tho legal suhtifuges furnished by these latter day Legists tore enactments, /.'ut like an honest man as lie was, In the sight of God, and before his count ry, he met every obligation as fast as he could with out regard to date, and was paying «ff an old so* eurily debt when stricken down, and hi the pro ; vision of his will, made arrangements for the dis charge of the last dollar of obligation resting upon him. . • Mr. Coltler never connected himself with .any branch of the Christian Church, but had a most j profound respect for the go-ai and virtuous. 1 bus ! lived ami died what is said to be the “noblest workof God, an houest man.’* J.

Even those i who have been favored by nature with sUroDg constitulioi sand vigorous frames are apt to neglsct the precautions necessary to preserve these precious endowments. Indeed, as a mle, the more healthy and robust a man is, the more liberlies he is inclined to take with bis own physique. It. is some consolation to the naturally weak and feeble to know that they can be so invigorated and built up, by a proper use of the meane which science has pla.. and at their di posal, as to have a much better chance ot long life, and exemptions from disease and pain, than the most athletic of their fellows who arc foolish enough to suppose themselves invulnerable, and act ac cordingly. | | I is not 100 much to say that moro than half the people of the civilized world need an occasional tonic, to enable them to sup port the strain upon their bodies and minds, which the fast life of this restless age occa sions.

Competitive preparations have been introduced ad libitum, and, as far ns the public is concerned, ad nauseutn, in the hopo of rivalling it; but they have all ei* tber perished in the attempt, or been left far in the rear.
