Property Advancing. Dropping into the real estate agen cy office of jlessrs J M Broughton & Co, welearted that the building of the Cotton Factory, the reorganiza- ton and setting to work of the Wagon Factory, and the locating of the Bap tist Female College in Raleigh had given an upward tendency to real es tate. Mr Brpighton told us of one lot that he kid for $450 about month ago and had sold the same lot again on Satiiriay for $750. The estafcUjfcqu3nt of this agency about a year ago net a long felt want in our city by fixiig a medium for the renting and selhn; of property. ' It is astonishing hov we have been en abled to rent houses and rooms, that hava long been vacant," said Mr ., B. "And every d4y ur business is in creasing, and jou would be astonish' ed to know how many strangers we have located L& or city since opening our agency." i THE LAW VINDICATED. Shackelford alias Davis, the Murderer of Ilorton, Pays the Penalty of His Crime. Special to the Evening Visitor. PlTTSBORO, March 28. Shackelford was hanged at 12:43 to day. He was pronounced dead in 11 minutes. Before the cap was drawn he read a farewell address and was perfectly calm. His last words were: "I used the boot jack." Prayer was offered by Rev 0 Cecil. No relatives of the condemned man were present. There were about 6,000 persons in attendance, from six coun ties. The prisoner ate a hearty breakfast this morning and slept well last night. The body was interred at the county poor house. A Celebrated Establishment. We visited , today, the celebrated coffin house in this city, which was established in 1836, by the late Mr H J Brown, and, of which Mr John W Brown is the pres nt Superintendent and funeral director. Mr Brown has had fifteen years experience in the business and he carries at all times one of the largest and finest stocks of caskets, coffins, burial robes and all the other arrangements for the proper interment of bodies to be found in North Carolina. Especially in the line of fine and beautiful caskets, he cannot be excelled. He has in stock a casket of specially beautiful design. It is of plush finish inside and out ashes of roses. In our Grounds through his store rooms we found each and every department full and complete, with all grades from the ordinary to the most costly and beau tiful. The burial robe department de serves special mention from its varie ty and excellence embracing robes for ladies, gentlemen and children. His stock of silver handles and plates cannot be supassed, while the stock ot fine silk gloves.silk linings, etc, are of the finest order.Crepe for pall bear ers, beautiful in design is furnished free of charge. A beautiful child's pedestal of unique design can also be here seen. Mr Brown has three hearses, one of which is the most beautiful in the State, and he has a complete set of embalming instruments, by which he is prepared to do service in that line, not only in the most satisfactory manner, but unequalled in North Carolina. He has also a perf ume.for use called "Kreotiline," a most efficient disin -fectant, pleasant to smell and valu able in sick chambers or where bodies are located. In the business office of the estab lishment there is a feature which at tracts the attention of all callers. He has quite a large selection of portraits beautifully framed, among which are some of our most prominent deceased persons whom he has furnished with burial outfits and whose funerals he has superintended. Among these we noticed: Gov Worth, Geo W Morde- cai, Esq, Dr Chas E Johnson, Col Buck Tucker, Hon B F Moore, Dr W H McKee.Capt Randolph A Shotwell, Chief Justice W N H Smith. There are some other special fea tures we might mention if space all lowed. . ! In conclusion Ivre can say that Mr Brown is as well prepared as any one in the country to give most perfect satisfaction to all who have occasion for material or service in his line As an emporium for all the arrangements for the interment of the dead this celebrated house has no, Buperior in the South. Superior Court. The case of the State vs J J Boyle, occupied the entire attention of the court today. The following witnesses for the prosecution were examined Miss Effle Whitaker, Miss Alioe Up church and Mrs A L FerrelL The colored sexton of the Church of the Sacred Ileart, Charley Young, was also placed on the stand. The attendance in the court room was very large, and there is no abate ment of interest ..in the trial. Thus far, there has been no evidence elicit ed that w is not brought out on the former trial. The case will probably be concluded so far as evidence is con cerned this afternoon, as the exami nation of witnesses is not as long as on the previous trial. ANOTHER POINT RAISED. Mr. XV. It. Henry of Counsel lor White and Cross Makes An other Effort for his Clients. Mr W R Henry, of counsel for Messrs Cross and White has raised another point in behalf of his clients. He returned, yestereday, from New Berne where he presented for the consideration of Judge A S Seymour, of the United States District court, a petition for a writ of habeas corpus, in the name of C E Cross. The point raised by Mr Henry is that the agree ment made with Cross and White while in Canada places them in the same position and secures to them the same immunities as if they had been regularly extradited; that being in the same position they could not be tried for any other offense than that for which extradited until allowed an opportunity to return to Canada. Mr Henry contends that the treaty of 1842 comtemplates only common law for gery, and that his clients have been tried for statutory forgery. The writ, if grauted will be made returnable to June term, and, in the meantime the sentence of the prisoners will not be suspended. It is probable that Judge Seymour will render a decision in a few days. Mr Henry cites several cases in which parties have been ex tradited and put on trial for statutory forgery and released on habeas corpus. SPECIAL NOTICES.
