Opinion:
PROYOSTY, J.
We find in the record nothing calling for our attention, except a hill of exception reciting that the defendant moved for a new trial on the ground that the verdict was coñtrary to the law and the evidence, and that the court overruled the motion. Not being- informed wherein the ruling complained of was contrary to law, we cannot review it.
Judgment affirmed.
