STONE, J.

¶1We have carefully considered the many points urged in argument, why we should reverse the judgment of conviction in this case, and the result is that we find no error *381in the record. We consider it unnecessary to notice the questions in detail. See Ex parte Winston, 52 Ala. 419; Floyd v. The State, 55 Ala. 61; State v. Craton, 6 Ire. 164. We have fully considered the charges excepted to, and find no error in them. — Boots Coleman v. The State, at the present term.

¶2Affirmed.
