13629.
    Weatherby v. The State.
    Decided July 11, 1922.
    Indictment for manufacture of liquor; from Haralson superior court — Judge Irwin. April 5, 1922.
    
      Griffith & Matthews, for plaintiff in error.
    
      J. R. Hutcheson, solicitor-general, contra.
   Broyles, C. J.

1. The alleged newly discovered evidence upon which the amendment to the motion for a new trial was based is merely cumulative and impeaching in character, and is not such evidence as would probably cause a different verdict upon another trial of the case.

2. The verdict was amply authorized by the evidence, and the court did not err in refusing to grant a new trial.

Judgment, affirmed.

Luke and Bloodworth, concur.
