1 . A pillar shaped honeycomb structure, comprising: an outer peripheral wall; and a porous partition wall disposed inside the outer peripheral wall, the porous partition wall defining a plurality of cells, each of the cells extending from one end face to other end face to form a flow path, wherein a surface of the porous partition wall in the cells comprise a collecting layer having an average pore diameter lower than that of the porous partition wall; and wherein magnetic particles having a Curie point of 700° C. or higher are provided either or both between the surfaces of the porous partition wall and the collecting layer, and on the collecting layer. 2 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 1 , wherein the magnetic particles have a volume-based average particle diameter D 50 of 10 to 3000 μm. 3 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 1 , wherein the magnetic particles comprise at least one element selected from the group comprising Fe, Co, or Ni. 4 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 1 , wherein surfaces of the magnetic particles are coated with a protective layer. 5 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 1 , wherein the collecting layer comprises a compound containing an oxide of at least one, two or more elements selected from the group comprising Si, Al, Mg, or Ti. 6 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 1 , wherein the collecting layer has a porosity of 40 to 80%. 7 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 1 , wherein the collecting layer has an average pore diameter of 1 to 10 μm. 8 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 1 , wherein the collecting layer has a thickness of 10 to 80 μm. 9 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 1 , wherein the collecting layer has a heat conductivity lower than that of the porous partition wall. 10 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 1 , further comprising a heat insulating layer having a thermal conductivity lower than that of the collecting layer between the surface of the porous partition wall in the cells and the collecting layer. 11 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 1 , further comprising a heat insulating layer having a thermal conductivity lower than that of the porous partition wall between the surface of the porous partition wall in the cells and the collection layer. 12 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 10 , wherein the heat insulating layer has a porosity higher than that of the collecting layer and is 60 to 98%. 13 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 10 , wherein the heat insulating layer has an average pore diameter lower than that of the porous partition wall and is 0.005 to 1 μm. 14 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 1 , wherein the porous partition wall and the outer peripheral wall comprises a ceramic material. 15 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 14 , wherein the ceramic material comprises a compound containing at least one, two or more elements selected from the group comprising Si, Al, or Mg. 16 . The honeycomb structure according to claim 1 , wherein the cells comprise: a plurality of cells A which are opened on the one end face side and have plugged portions on the end face on the other end face side; and a plurality of cells B which are arranged alternately with the cells A, and which are opened on the other end face side and have plugged portions on the end face on the one end face side. 17 . An exhaust gas purifying device, comprising: the honeycomb structure according to claim 1 ; a coil wiring that spirally surrounds an outer circumference of the honeycomb structure; and a metal pipe for housing the honeycomb structure and the coil wiring.
