DR.. s. B. Collins, the discoverer of
an antidote for the Opium and

at large, has and is yearly destroying

such that becomes addicted to its use.

WHAT WAS SEEN OF THE PEOPLE IN A
GENERAL wAY--GRANGERs MEETING.
The drangers had q big meeting,
or picnic the second day Of our visit.
Many speeches were made, among
others, b. NJ. Woollcy, at present an
Atlanta towpsman, but lately of
Alabama, was called out.
He told them he was Southern
man with Southern sympathies, that
he had owned slaves and was
soldier in the Confederate army, and
believed they would honor him for
being proud of the soldier character
| OF bis old comrades. This was
cheered heartily, But though |
owned slaves and believe the colored
people as whole, were better off in
slave times than they are to-day, |
would not have the system restored
| if | could be presented with one
hundred able bodied men. Here he
was interrupted by your correspon-
dent, and asked, what was the feel
ing of the better and thinking Glass
of the Southern people on that cues,
ton, and on his emphatically saying
he knew they felt as he did, the
woods fairly shook with the cheers
and clapping of hands. lie then
forcibly depicted the sad results of
negro rule, as manipulated by the
unprineipled men who had controlled
them. He then stated that the
Southern people want the privilege,
and claimed it as right, to make
and execute their own laws. They
were not opposed to the colored
people they would treat them, he
believed, with more consideration
and true kindness than outsiders, but
did not like to be forced to treat
them with more politeness than they
did themselves,
He concluded with Q glowing
description of what his native State
(Alabama) was before the war, and
of her unfortunate condition a the
present time. Land worth $40 an
acre was now almost worth nothing,
and would so continue until they
we're again blessed with sensible,
economical administration of her
State affairs. His whole speech was
earnestly made, and when he sat
]own he must have been hattered by
he cheers and general good feeling
!; and it did me good to
zee how heartily they sympathized
With him and the Southern people.
After he and | left the stand they
gathered around like bees of hot
evening at the mouth of the hive
They said many pleasant things
'that they we're glad to hear direct
from the South"-"glad to know
he facts--that they wanted the good
people of the South to understand
hat as a rule, the better class North
srn people had not represented,
and especially by the carpet-bag-
gers. ~ All expressed the hope that
