Powell, J.

This case raises substantially the' same point as that raised in Hopkins v. State, supra (63 S. E. 718). It appears, however, in the present case that the defendant was arrested on a warrant issued by a magistrate and gave bond for his appearance at the-December term of the city court of Cartersville, without demanding a committal trial on the warrant.
