No exception was taken by appellant to any ruling or decision of the court until the 5th day of March, 1878, three and one-half months after the decree was settled, signed and entered of record. An exception so taken cannot furnish a basis for reviewing the action of the court. The only provision for taking an exception, at a time subsequent to the ruling of which complaint is made, is contained in section 2789 of the Code.
