Per Curiam.

¶1In this case no exception was taken to any ruling of the Court. The record presents nothing for our consideration in such a case, as we have repeatedly decided (1). The affirmance is no indication, therefore, of any opinion on the questions ruled below; for we have not looked into them.

¶2The judgment is affirmed, with 5 per cent, damages and costs.
