AN Ex-WIFE OF OMAR PACHA.-Among the
distinguished arrivals by one of the recent
steamers from Europe, is Madame Omar Pa
cha, wife of the celebrated Turkish COM
mander who won SO many laurels in Silistria
We understand that she has come to seside in
this country at least for the present. Her
history is somewhat remarkable She is a
native of Pennsylvania. and at IL years Of
age was sent to school at Bucharest, where
she developed wonderful genius for music,
and at fifteen became celebrated in private
circles by the briliancy of her erformance
Omar Pacha was at that time Military Com
mander Of Wallachia, and meeting the young
lady at soiree was delighted, first with her
music. and then with her manners and COR
versation-be came devoted to her, and final
" married her. Not sharing at this time the
Turkish notions about women, instead of
shutting up his wife at home, she was allowed
to accompany him in his military expeditions,
and composed several pieces of military mu-
sic, which became favorites with the Turkish
army during the campaign. After the war
was over, the Marshal, yielding to more am
bilious views, and conforming to the custom
of his country, married the daughter of
Hafiz Pacha. with whom he had maintained
political relations, and directed the young
Transylvanian to enter his harem. This
with good deal of indignation and spirit
she refused to do,-but at once sought anC
procured divorce from the Marshal, an(
some two years since repaired to Paris where
she has since resided She has lived entire
ly in private, but has published several very
popular pieces of music. and is well know
in the music circles of the metropolis. Sh,

DurLs AT HE1D1rBuRo.-A correspondent

DUELs AT HEIDLEBuR0.-A correspondent
Of the New York Tribune, at Heidleburg,
gives an amusing description of the manner
in which the German students prepare them
selves for dueling. The combatants are well
protected from injury, save their heads, which
are bare. Their right arm is wound with
cloth until it is as big as a mans thigh, and
too heavy to hold it is supported, when not
fighting, by the seconds. The neck is also
wound with cloth to the ears to protect the
jugulars. The swords are about four feet
long, three fourths of an inch wide, blunt
pointed, with rough edge, being regular
fencing swords If all is ready they begin,
and endeavor to cut each other only on the
head or face If the swords are bent or
broken, the parties are stopped ty the sec
onds, who examine the wounds, sew them
up if necessary, straighten the swords, and
the fighting commences. For fifteen min
utes this continues unless one of the party
gives out. or they declare their revenge salts
fed. Now and then an ear or nose is cut
off, and always more or less slashes are given
across the scalp, forehead or face. These
marks are regarded as honorable distinc-
tions, giving evidence of bravery on the
part of the bearer.

COSTA RIGA AFFAIRs-THoMAs MEAGHER-
The Washington correspondent of the Repub
lican says "a rumor which ascertain tc
he well founded, is now creating no little
stir in the official circles of the capital
Thomas Francis Meagher has gone to Costa
Rica as the agent of the exiled President.
Senor Mora, for the purpose of rallying his
Irish countrymen to aid in restorin the
banished chief to power. 1t will be recol-
lected that Mr. NJ. was also bearer of dis
patches to Mr.. Dimitry and this official po
sition will enable him to operate more extern
sively than he could otherwise have done.
1t will occasion the Administration much
annoyance to know that by the very chan
mel through which they recognize the new
government of Costa Rica, they are also
sowing the seeds of another revolution"
| should hope this statement to be unfoun-
ded. 1t certainly places Mr.. Meagher in the
position of an emissary who is at one and the
same moment taking the money of two hos
tile interests.

The Cleveland Leader publishes the par
ticulars of a most shocking accident that oc-
Cured on Thursday last at an Agricultural
Fair near Wellington, Lorain county, Ohio.
During the exhibition of horses in the ring. a
kind of ampitheatre, filled with people, broke
down through the immense weight, carrying
in the ruins hundreds of human beings, men
and women The scene that followed the
crash beggars description; the widest con-
fusion prevailed. and the shreks of the
crushed beings were truly awful. Scores
we're injured more or less; but eight were se-
riously hurt. One young lady, ankle bro
ken one lady, leg broken; one lady, hip
broken IN shocking manner two men. legs
broken; and young married lady, wife of a
physician had her spine seriously injured
1t is mercy that numbers were not killed
and as is, the affair has cast gloom ovel
the entire county.

FURTHER PARTICULARS OF THE ATTACK on
THE AUBURN STAeE.-In addition to the ac
count given by us yesterday. of the attempt
ed robbery of the stage between Auburn and
Forest Hill, we find the following in yester-
days Sacramento Standard:
Last evening we learned the following
particulars of the affair from the agent of the
California Stage Company. Mr.. Maginnis 1t
seems that Dan Gay, who, by the by, is one
of the shrewdest and best detective police
men in the State, obtained information in
some way that n robbery of Clark's line OF
stages which run from Forest Hill to Auburn
was contemplat ed by band of robbers who
ranged from Forest Hill to Folsom, and that
they had place of rendezvous in Folsom.
Accordingly he proceeded to Folsom, ascer.
tained the house where they met. and seere.
ted himself beneath the floor, where he re.
mained for twenty-four hours, and overheard
their plan of robbery, and the whole particu.
lars of the whereabouts of the band From
Folsom the officer went to Forest Hill. dis
guised himself, and actually made the ac-
qunintance of a number of the robbers who
let him into the secret that they intended to
attack the stage at q certain time and place
which were agreed upon. Officer Cav then
returned to this city, and lettny officer
ONeil into the secret, the two armed them
selves with revolvers and double barreled
shot gun each-the latter had been cut short
in the barrels, so that they could be secreted
beneath their overcoats. They then proeee-
ded TO Forest Hill, and informed Wells. Far
go d. Co.'S agent of the contemplated attack,
after which they took passage in the stage at
two o'clock yesterday morning for Auburn
About mile on the Auburn side of Todds
Valley, the stage stopped near the foot of
hill, and the officers informed the passengers
that the stage would probably be attacked,
and if they did not wish to fight, they had
better get out. All the passengers left the
stage except one man, who was sitting out
side with the driver Officers Cav and
O'Neil were alone in the stage, and soon af-
ter ascending the hill the road passes through
a groveo of oak trees which grow close to the
road. This was the place agreed upon for
the attack. 1t was about four o'clock in the
morning, and scarcely light enough TO dis
tinguish objects at any great distance. As
the stage entered the grove, two men step
ped from behind the trees and caught the
horses by the heads, while two others ap-
preached, one on each side the stage, and
demanded the boxes of treasure. At this
moment Of the proceedings, Officer Gay lev.
eled his gun at one of the robbers, while
O'Neil covered the other with his blunder-
buss, and taking steady aim they fred
each killing his man. One of the robbers
fired at the driver of the stage, Little
Dave" as he is called, and hit him in the
thigh. The officers then pursued the re.
naming robbers and fired at them, wound
ing one, but he escaped into the chapparal,
where it was not prudent for the officers to
follow them. Further particulars will be
heard during the day.

Loss OF TWO WHALE sHIPs.-Captain Han
dy, says the s. F. Bulletin late of the wha.
ling bark Phoenix, of Nantucket, who ar
rived here on Saturday in the whaleship
Massachusetts,, mentions the loss of his own
vessel (the Phoenix and of another whaling
bark, the Ocean Wave, of New Bedford, at
Shantar Bay. in the Ochotsk Sea. on 18th
October, 1858. A gale came on and the ship
dragged her anchors. They cut away her
masts to relieve her, but the Phoenix was
driven on reef The crew landed on shore
where they wintered. They saved all the
provisions and clothing possible before th
ship went to pieces. They continued in
good health, although they suffered much
from cold. They were found and rescued the
present season by the Massachusetts, which
vessel afterwards proceeded to search for the
Ocean Wave, that had been caught in the
came gale. The Massachusetts succeeded in
finding part of the wreck of the Ocean
Wave, together with some remains of her
crew, on Pinole's Rock, bearing about ten
miles north of Elbow Island, where che, no
doubt, was driven on the morning of Octo-
Der 10, and as the weather was boisterous,
little doubts exist that every one on board
persisted.
