Russell, J.

1. A judgment' overruling a demurrer to an accusation

should be excepted to directly by exceptions pendente lite, properly preserved in the record, or by exceptions in the final bill of exceptions, . timely filed. It does not constitute a proper ground in a motion for a new trial. Williams v. State, 4 Ga. App. 853 (62 S.E. 525" date_filed="1908-10-13" court="Ga." case_name="Worthington v. Georgia Railway & Electric Co.">62 S. E. 525).

2. Grounds contained in an amendment to a motion for a new trial, not . vex-ified or .approved by the trial judge, can not be considered by this court. Soell v. State, 4 Ga. App. 337 (61 S.E. 514" date_filed="1908-05-18" court="Ga. Ct. App." case_name="Soell v. State">61 S. E. 514) ; Wilson v. Cobb, 4 Ga. App. 272 (61 S.E. 133" date_filed="1908-04-22" court="Ga. Ct. App." case_name="Wilson v. Cobb">61 S. E. 133).
