The State v. Johnson.—In error.
   IN the case of an indictment, where there has been a trial on the merits by a competent Court, and a judgment for the defendant, the judgment will not be reversed for an error of the Court, in refusing to permit the prosecuting attorney to enter a nolle prosequi, or in rejecting evidence offered by him; the defendant not being liable to be put in jeopardy again for the same offence.
