AFFAIR IN VIENNA BETWEEN Col. PEARSON, OF
CALIFORNIA, AND THE ARcH-DUKE CHARIEs.-The
following letter has been received by the New
York Herald in reference to recent difficulty
which is reported to have taken place at Wen
ma between Colonel Pearson, of California, and
His Imperial Highncss the Archduke Charles:
VIENNA, Sept. 21, 1856.
An affair has just occurred here which has
caused good deal of excitement in fashionable
circles
Col. Pearson, of California, who arrived here
the other day from Moscow, felt desirous Of in
specting The government buildings, and for that
purpose applied for the usual authorization
He was informed that no one but members of
the European Congress of Sciences, then in ses-
sion in this city, could be admitted.
On receiving this reply, he applied to be re-
ceived as member of the Congress, stating
that his diploma had been destroyed in the great
fire at San Francisco. His demand was COM
piled with, and he was treated with the greatest
consideration by all the members of the body,
with the exception of the Archduke Charles,
who took exception to his admission on the
ground of his having no diploma.
Col. Pearson felt himself eggreved by the
manner in which the Archduke's objections were
made, and felt it due to his honor to call on the
latter for an explanation. The Grand Duke be-
haved in the handsomest manner on the occa-
sion, and the difficulty was amicably settled
These are the true facts Of the affair, which,
no doubt, have by this time reached you through
other channels

TURKISH CHARAcTER.-It was said by Gibbon
most truly, that the Turks have been, since the
Conquest, encamped, not settled, in Europe.
They amount to fourth, or third at the ut
most, of the population of the Sultan's domin-
ions. They are scattered in very unequal pro-
portions over its surface. In some parts they
form tolerably thick agricultural population.
In others, as in Constantinople itself, they are
engaged in the trades and manufactures of a
large city. But no where do they exercise those
extended operations of skill and thought which
bring men together, cause them to rely on each
other, give them the habit of combined peace
full action, and impart to them the intelligence
and the energy on which alone strong COM
monwealth is built up The Armenians are
their bankers; the Jews their dealers; the Greeks
their merchants. The very organization of the
people seems to have denied them those finer
qualities, both mental and corporeal, which fit
men for the superior branches of industry.
A Turks fingers, Dr. Walsh quantity observes,
seem all to be thumbs; he has no manual dex-
terity for any delicate employment, and his
mind is as unfit for subtle operations as his body.
The Turks neither write nor print (with the ex-
ceptiOn of bombastic poetry and still more bonn
bastic history.) They do not build but destroy.
They show no wish to adorn the soil which they
inhabit, or to connect in any way the existence
of the present generation with posterity. Their
object in this world seems to be mere animal
existence as completely as that of the beasts OF
the field. Their religious sense is deep, endur-
ing, exalted; but it is a religion which deadens
and Supplies the intellectual faculties.

MORE CoURT EIoUETTE.-The English seem
to have particular horror of anything yellow.
Professor Mahan shocked the assembly at the
Queens levee by his yellow vest and now some
Americans at the Court of the Emperor of Rus
sia, have disturbed the nerves of the correspond
ent of the London Daily Neaos, by wearing yel-
low plumes in their chapeau. He says they were
the most staredat individuals in the place,
which is nothing singular, for live Yankee
generally manages to make himself noticed
wherever be goes An equal breach of eti-
quette, in the correspondents opinion, was that
the Americans. on leaving the imperial pres
ence, turned their backs upon the Emperor
He congratulates his country that Englshmen
only retired with their faces to royalty, walking
backwards like crab.

ASUccEssFUL MIssIONARY.-Severalye yearsago,
when the persecution against the converted
Armenians in Turkey was raging with viru-
lence, the Rev. DR.. Hamlin, the missionary
there, set up steam Touring mill, chiefly at his
own expense, where the poor refugees might
find employment, DR.. H. personally superintend-
ing its management. On the occurrence of the
war. DR.. ii. made a bread contract with the Bri-
tish Government, the profit on which amounted
to nearly 5000, all of which DIR. Hamlin has
devoted to the cause of missioas in Turkey He
has purchased several churches for the native
converts and provided and sustained preachers,
and set on foot other large-sighted and liberal
measures from his own resources His move
ment in behalf of the Bulgarians, while in Lon
don. has resulted in sending two missionaries to
that field and an unlimited supply of Bibles.

MANUFACTURE OF WATCHES The number OF
watches manufactured annually in Neufehatel,
Switzerland, may be calculated to be from
900 to 10000, of which about 35,O00are in
gold, and the rest in silver. Now, supposing
the first, on an average to be worth $50, and
the others $4 it would represent capital Of
81 800, 900, without taking into consideration
the sale of clocks and instruments for watch
making, the amount of which very large. The
United States of America consume the largest
quantity of these watches. With the exception
of gold and silver for the manufacture of the
watch cases. the other materials for the con-
structon of the works of mechanism of the Neuf-
chatel watches are of little value, consisting
merely of little brass or STEEL The steel IS
imported from England, and is reeoned the best
that can be procured, the brass is furnished Dy
France With respect to gold and silver, the
inhabitants of Neufchatel have had for long
time no other resource bat to melt current com,
until they received gold from England: which
the English merchants received from California.
The number Of workmen who are employed IN
matchmaking is estimated at from 18,O0O to
20. .OOO but It is dificRlt TO arrive at the exact
number, .as the population employed r~- on
the tasiness IN their own house- ."i''
