In 1, your brother must have done something that pleased you. You are now happy with him.
In 2, something positive happened to/for your brother. Therefore, you are happy that he is happy.
In 3, your brother says and does things that make you happy.
4 is almost like 3.
1. I am happy with my brother.
2. I am happy for my brother.
3. I am happy because of my brother.
4. I am satisfied with my brother.
