*77 The opinion of the Court was delivered by

Mr. Justice Watts.

The exception complains of error on the part of his Honor in not granting a new trial on the ground that the evidence did not warrant a conviction, and that from the evidence no other inference could be drawn than that the defendant acted in self-defense.
