            In referring to this enterprise some days ago, we omitted to give deserved credit to Mr. F. W. Maura, a worthy mechanic of Macon, who invented the entire machinery used in the establishment, and that without any previous knowledge on the subject.

            In addition to the specimens of their work alluded to some days ago, we have a sample of large wooden buttons, suitable for soldiers’ coats, &c., which are the best we recollect to have seen.
