¶1Although numerous errors have been assigned in this case, but two questions are legitimately reserved on the record—one growing out of a decision rejecting an offer by the appellants to read in evidence, from a newspaper, an advertisement purporting to be signed by the appellee; the other arising on the refusal of the Court to grant a new tidal. As to the first question, it is sufficient to remark, that the appellants did not show, nor offer to show, that the advertisement emanated from the appellee. In order to a correct determination of the other question, we have carefully considered the evidence, and cannot sa.y that the verdict was manifestly against the weight of evidence. On the contrary, the testimony was conflicting and contradictory, to such a degree, that a finding either way would not have demanded any interference on the part of the Court. We are not at liberty to look into the affidavits relating to the conduct of the jurors, or the instructions given and refused by the Court. They are not a part of the record, merely because the clerk has copied them into the transcript. They should have been incorporated in the bill of exceptions. Besides, the case fails to show that any exceptions were taken to the decision of the Court in giving and refusing instructions. The other decisions, in admitting and excluding evidence, were not excepted to, and, consequently, are not subject to revision in this Court.
