In the absence of a written request for a more specific instruction, the chai’ge as given sufficiently instructed the jury in reference to the law of stabbing, and of self-defense. 'The evidence, though conflicting, was sufficient to authorize the verdict of assault with intent to murder. No substantial error of law was committed. Eor this reason, the judgment overruling the motion for a new trial will not be disturbed. Judgment affirmed.
