Tbe record does not show that tbe matters assigned for error ‍​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‍in tbis court were excepted to, or in any other manner reserved by tbe plaintiffs in error, in tbe court below.

Tbis court bas repeatedly ‍​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‍beld, that it will not revise any supposed error in tbe decision of an inferior court of law upon facts, unless they are set ‍​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‍forth in a bill of exceptions, signed and sealed as-the statute directs. 17 Ala. 700; 13 ib. 245; 12 ib. 600; 5 ib. 127; 9 Porter ‍​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‍136; ib. 118; 5 ib. 103; 5 Stew. & P. 330.

We are not disposed to change tbe practice, even if we were at liberty to do ‍​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​​‌‌‌‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​​​​‌​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌‌‌‍so; and consequently, tbe judgment of tbe Court of Probate is affirmed.
