i. The defendant could not be tried on an affidavit and information filed in the circuit court. The State v. Justice. ante, p. 210.

2. The evidence, as set out in the bill of exceptions, does, not prove that the property alleged to have been stolen was. the property of the person named in the information. Jackson v.
