NEW WAY TO GUST AN ENEMY.

BAILgY's Cross ROADS, Sept. 81 Editor Star:
AT point within gunshot Of our pIckets stood
the famous Munson barn and hay ricks, heavily
planked and sodded With loop holed, &C. &c ;,
and well guarded by the hay ricks. The enemy
would advance from the rear and pick OF our
pickets whenever any was unlucky as to ex pose
his mug from behind the friendly tree or log
which served az covert. Many plans had been
suggested around the camp FIRE to abate the
nuisance, but none feasible. Storminq il would
never do, as Munson Hill was In too close prox
unity. Yankee ingenuity at last hit upon an .x-
pedent, and ii was last night successfully carried
into execution by Major Frank Lemon and Lieut..
Chas. Dimond, Of the First California Regiment
At the forge Of some blacksmith's they made
some hfty or more conical slugs, and with these
and Sharp's rife, they started for the line Of our
Pickets, built fire, and commenced heating shot.
One Of them, with cloth, would drop the shot
into the muzzle Of The rife, and the Major, being
the best shot blszed away. At the second shot
the hay ricks were In blaze. In two more shots
the barn caught. Out rushed the rebels and made
for the hill the long roll of the enemy was beat.
rockets Were sent mp, orderlies were seen rushing
to and fro with great speed, and evidently the
enemy were expecting an attack along the length
Of his whole lines. Meantime our gallant Major
and Lieut. Dimond, over some good old apple
jack and salt beef and crackers, enjoyed the fun
amazingly. This was the light seen in the direc
ton Of Munson Hill last night about 10 O'Clock.

sincere friends Of the Union cause.
