ALI PACIIA.—The use of military costume, to support or
assume the character of a soldier, is not uncommon among
very peaceable travellers on the continent. It once happened
that a party, chiefly military men, aware of the better recep-
tion which a red coat would obtain at the court of All Pacha,
took their uniforms. One of them, a young man, who could
notboast of any regimentals except what he had worn in one of
the London companies of volunteers, took these for want, of
better. At Yauina they were received by Ali Pacha with mutt
courtesy; and, upon addressing the young traveller, Ali 1,44
to him, Wheree-have you served ?' This would have 'been a
poser to most men in the same situation; but he won mono
honour by his wit than he had done by his sword ; for his ready
answer was, epi ton Yimbledon Koman--‘ upon Wimbledon Com-
mon.' Ali had too much tact to betray his ignorance of the
battle or the
_place; and our city hero passed with the tyrant
for a distinguished warrior.—Finden's Illustralioxs of Boron.
