Manufacturing buttons.

--The manufacturing capacity of the Confederacy is greatly increasing. Within a few days several machines for making bone buttons (the first made in the South) have been put to work by the Union Manufacturing Company, which made them, and are now turning out bone buttons by the million. They will supercede the wood buttons which the Government has been forced to put on our soldiers' uniforms.
