The Staunton Shoemakers.

--One of the hands employed in the shoe factory at Staunton, Va., writes to us some further account of the misrepresentations published in the Boston Journal. He says:

‘ Only eight or ten of the Northern men went home. There are some twenty-five of us left yet, and we are going to stay as long as the company find stock for us to work on. The first statement in the Boston Journal was from Mr. Carson, who was of no account any how, and it was a condescension on Mr. Raymond's part to notice it. We were all glad to see the matter righted.
