The lady awaking, of course screamed, and Allen, finding his mistake went quietly away, He wad called upon next day for a formal apology, which he declined to give, as ho had by that time forgotten all about the matter, and a summons was accordingly issued for being un lawfully on the premises. The Bench, considering that they Conld not inflict a fine, and that the offence Was not suffici* ently grave to be pdnished by imprisonment dismissed the case, on condition that the prisoner paid 10s. to s charity.
