APPEAL FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF- THE UNITED STATES FOR THE DISTRICT OF WFST VIRGINIA.

1Opinion of the CourtChief Justice Waite

delivered the'opinion of the court.

Without intending to decide that an appeal lies to this court from an order óf a circuit court, or of a district court exercising circuit court powers, refusing leave to file a bill of review, we hold that the refusal in this case was right.. The bill as presented has none of the characteristics of a bill of review. No errors of law appearing on the face of the record are assigned, and there is no allegation of any discovery of new matter since the decree was rendered.

Affirmed.
