(Not to be reported in full.)
Abstract of the Decision.
1. Criminal law, § 580 * —when error in remarks by court deemed waived. If a motion for new trial is made by defendant in a criminal case, and the grounds thereof are stated in writing, the defendant is limited to those reasons and all other errors are deemed waived, such as impropriety in remarks by the court.
2. Criminal law, § 431*—when question of error in orally directing jury to return to jury róom and amend verdict not saved for review. The point that the court erred in orally directing the jury in a criminal case, upon its returning to the court room *422with a verdict finding the defendant guilty1 under a certain number of the counts in the indictment without specifying which ones, to return to the jury room and amend their verdict by giving the number of the counts under which they found the defendant guilty, is not saved for review where the only objection made at the time, and later in the motion for a new trial, was that it was error to direct the jury to amend the verdict.
