WAsHlNeroN, Aug. ga messenger
from the Virginia side this morning
states that Our picket forces advanced 10
Bayley's Cross roads yesterday, and drove
those of the secessionists half mile be-
yond, where it is said the latter have ts =
ken possession ola commanding eminence
and are throwing up entertainments.
There was much firing during the day,
but without fatal results.
The inhabitants generally of that sec
tloE have removed elsewhere, some Of
them 10 tins city.
A dash of Secession cavalry, il is repor-
ted by the messenger, was made at what
they supposed TO be deserted cannon. -
After about twelve rounds had been fred
at it from their hcwitzers, on making a
near approach, they discovered it to be a
sham, some of the Michigan boys having
for sport deceived the enemy by mounting
stoUs pipe on an old par Of wheels.
Daniel Knipple, OF the Second Michi-
gan Regiment, was killed by the aociden-
tai discharge Of gun in the hands Of a
comrade.
