li The Long White Seam. BT JEAN INGELOW. As I came round the harbor buoy, The lights began ?o clearn. Ko wave the land-locked harbor stirred, The crags were white as cream; And I marked my love by candle-light, Sewing her long white seam. Its aye sewing ashore, my dear, Watch and steer at sea. It's reef and furl, and haul the line, Set sail and thin ic of thee. I ellmbed to reach her cottage door; Oh, sweetly ray love slogs ! _ ,_ Like a shaft of ?ight her voice breaks forth, Hy soul to meet it springs As the shining water leaped of old, Wlie-i stirred by angel wings. Aye longini? to list anew, Awake and in my dream, Bot never a song she sang like thl3, Sewing her long white seam. Fair fall the llghtp, the harbor lights, That brought me in to thee, And peace drop down on that low roof For the sight that I did see, And the voice, my dear, that rang so clear All for the love of me. For Oh, for Oh, with brow bent low By the nickering candle's gleam, lier wedding gown it was she wrought, Sewing the long white seam. [Good Words for October. THE SIEGE OF METZ. A French Sortie and Its Repulse-Th??, star -vaticn Process. A correspondent of the London Times with the Prussian army before Metz, writing on the 20th of September, says : On rte day McMahon was attacked at Sedan Bazaine made his sortie near Cour celles. It is surprising that so little bas been heard of this battle, or, rather, of tbeee two battles. Tbe attack was made in the first instance at about tee at night, and laeted from about ten till one, when the French were driven back, or at least withdrew, wah heavy losses. It was renewed again at dawn on the following day and con? tinued until nearly eleven A. M., but with this diff?rence in result, chat the French suffered on the second occasion far more heavily than on the first. The Prussians lay on the ground with their knapsacks in front of them, over which they fired. The French bad, of course, to advance standing, ana their loss was au fui. let they never faced thc.Pmssians at Conted? les in a manner that could be compared to tho determination with which the Prussians met them under far more disadvantageous circum? stances at the heights of Spi eneren. Courcel les, as we in front ot it can know, has decided the fate of Metz. We know that it must sur? render. The Prussians bave set their ho.-.rtH on taking it, and, if I can believe in what thev say, they would rather take Metz than Paris. With the stone walls tue Prussians say they do not mean to meddle. They seem far too well ' advised to run unnecessary risks. The atoDe walis they know cannot hurt them, but the men inside them can. They have only to bide their time till the great hosts which lie within them are reduced to the level of child ion ; they have only to wait till, according to the askges of "civilized" war, the women and children in the city are starved out, and then till the army is reduced by attenuation to such a state that the stone walls and great bastions, the moats and covered causeways, and all the great defences which might make even cowards brave, will become useless in the hands of a famished crowd. There will be no blood? stained ruins here, bat there will be as bad ; there will te houses filled with dead and dying, or almost empty, and echoing only to the* hol? low voice of lamine. Heaven forgive us all lor as a Christian I cannot but feel that if Metz is starved it will be a spectacle to shock the world. You havo not seen what I have ; you have not seen the miserable traces of star- . f vation ; you- have not seen, as I have, what real starvation is, with all its horrors, not nt grown men gunering, but of women and little ( children. I have; bat yet I dread the day 1 when we shall enter Metz after it bas been * starved. "Starved'ID writing or in print is ( only a participle ; think for a second of what it , means, done deliberately, systematically, skil? fully, and by force to 250,000 people. I would not dwell ou the repulsive horrors of Sedan ; I i would not dwell en the abject sufferings of the < French prisoners ; nor can I dwell, for I have not seen it yet, on what the suffering in Metz must be, where people are kept till they die of hunger unless tbey yield. The troops will take 1 all the provisions, and Iben think what the ? condition of the women and children will be. On Saturday, while at the front, the officer, j drew my aiton ion to a balloon that had been . sent up from Metz. He at once exclaimed. "There will be a sortie to-night." Ail night we anxiously waited an attack, bun towards > midnight three guDS were fired at intervals of ; one minute. Nothing came of it. We there- , fore concluded that it was a signal to counter- ( mand the sortie. During the day we contd distinctly bear tbe bands playinirin Metz. Tbe 1 Prus3?anB have now a telegraphic communies- ' lion all around Metz, by which means they are enable to collect over 8,000 men in one spot within the spase of fifteen minutes, and upon a late occasion I had tbe opportunity of observ- ; ing,. when the assembly sounded, that within i twenty-eight minutes a force of 22,000 men,' consisting of every branch of the service, were ! in fall marching order ready to proceed to the front, COMMERCIAL NEWS.
