hNECD0TE OF ONIER PACNA.

Omer Pacha is Sclavonlan by birth,
forty. eight years of age, and has been in
she TIrkish service lOr upwards of 20
years. When he entered that service,
he was obliged by the Turkish custom
TO change his name, which he did, from
"La.tas' TO "Omer." ltappears that he
never informed his family Of the ciircum-
stance, and was 10 them as lost. His
elder bro,her, Simon Lat,as, is so years
Of age, and has resided in Jassav, a
town in Pruth, Tor many years past, de.
voting his time 10 mercantile pursuits.
About ten years ago, an officer informed
him that his brother Omer had been kill

officer had seen him both dead and bu.

n nd irp, roll taI
in the memoir, began to think that this
renowned general might, by some acci-
dent, prove to be his long lost younger
brother. Ye. how conld this be, when
he had (what he considered) positive
proof of his brothers. death! The in.
formation which he had thus casually
acquired dwelt so much upon his mind
that he determined at once 10 wIite 10
Omer Pacha. He addressed his letter
to Chumla, where Omer Pacha was a,
tha! time residing. Simon shortly after
wards left Jassy for Varna, accompanied
by his son, fine, tall. strong built lad,
fifteen years and a halt old. Soon after
his arrival at Varna he received, through
Omer Pacha's first aid-de- camp, reply
to the letter he had forwarded from Jas
sy. What! what do you imagine was
his brothers cstonishment when he read
The ans xer! His own dear brother was
alive--yea, still alive, and anxiously a.
waiting, with open arms, 10 receive him.
Omer had sent his confidential aid de. !.
camy to welcome and conduct him, with
all speed, to Chumla. On arriving there
Omer Pacha came out 10 meet him, and
in an instant recognized his brother Si.
mon. But Simon did not so readily re-
member his younger brother, owing.
perhaps, to the gray hairs which now
adorn his head and beard. This was
truly romantic and affecting scene
