The motion was granted, and no exception was taken. A motion was subsequently made for a new trial, because of this alleged erroneous-ruling not excepted to, and denied, and the case comes into-this court on an appeal from this order. An erroneous ruling of this character, not excepted to at the time, cannot be made the subject of review on a motion for a new trial,, or on appeal from an order denying it.
