49. If on the trial of any appeal to any court of general quarter sessions of the peace in Ireland, or to the chairman of the county, against any conviction or order made or pronounced by any justice or justices of the peace, any objection shall be taken on account of any omission or mistake in the making or drawing up of such conviction or order, or any variance between the facts stated in such conviction or order and the evidence adduced in support thereof, and it shall be shown to the satisfaction of the court that sufficient grounds were in proof before the justice or justices making such conviction or order to have authorized the drawing up thereof free from the said omission or mistake, or that such variance is in some point not material to the merits of the case, it shall be lawful for the court to amend such conviction or order on such terms as it shall think fit, and to adjudicate thereupon as if no such omission or mistake or variance had existed.
