"MIANToNoMoHn- WhoeveT picks out the names
of our Monitors, batteries, and rams, ransacks
the aboriginal dialects and history to some pur-
pose The latest prize that has been brought to light
is 'Miantonomoh," This word, which probably has
wealth of meaning, if people only knew it, is the
title of the latest iron.cad
We find the above paragraph taking the
general round of our exchanges. Miantono-
mob was famous chief of the Narragansett
tribe of Indians, who gave the earlier settlers
in Rhode Island and Connecticut much trou-
blee He was taken prisoner in battle in
which large party Of English soldiers from
Massachusetts participated, and by them given
in charge of Uncas, the chief of the Mohegans,
who, with his tribe, assisted them against Mi
antonomoh. On the way home with his pris-
oner, and when within what is now the town of
Norwich in Connecticut, Uncas came behind
his captive, and cloved his head in twain with
a blow of his tomahawk. Miantonomoh was
buried where he fell, and the people Of Nor
witch have erected plain monument over his
remains. He was a great chiet-a man of
extreme daring and bravery-and was as sue
cessful in council as he had often proved him
self in war. His name is a very proper one
for Monitor from its associations Boston

New YorFs Election.
BY TELEGRA PH
TO THE WORCESTER DAILY SPY.

New YoRK, Nov. 5.-Actual returns from
% counties, and the city of New York, give
Seymour majority of 36,6lS. The 20 coun-
ties to hear from will reduce the above to 9,
500. 1t is so estimated by the Albany Argus.
The Albany Journal comedies the election OF
Seymour.
ALBANY, Nov. 5.-The Atlas and Argus
figures up to ten o'clock tonight, and gives
Seymour II 1915 majority in the state. Its es-
Inmates are below those of the state commit
tee, showing about 1900 majority. There
seems no reason to believe that any candidate
ON the democratic state ticket is defeated.
ALBANY, Nov. 5.-The Atlas and Argus

publican; in the assembly, 81 democrats to

THE PIRATE ReJoiciags at Rich
! n30ad.-The piteOus groans of the New York
chamber of commerce over the destruction of
Yankee property upon the high seas, by cou-
federate vessels, show where the shoe pinches
and where we ought to strike the enemy if we
would hurt him most. The doletul lamenta-
tions of these Shylocks over their lost dla-
monds are music to our ears. Nothing can
equal the satisfaction which they experience
from robbing other people, except the anguish
they suffer in being robbed themselves. The
vital part of these gentry lies in their pockets ;
the sensitive nerve of their whole system is
in their purses, and when that is effectually
pierced, the death agony is sudden and lrrem-
ediable.
A great deal has been said about invading
the north, and Selling the great centres OF It's
wealth-Philadelphi New York and Boston,
This would be desirable, if practicable; but
Whether it is practicable or not, another thing,
which is more important, Is practicable, ana
that is to cut off the sources of its wealth, and
the golden streams which supply the reser
voirs of its prosperity. Ifnorthern commerce
upon the ocean could be destroyed, or even
to any great extent crippled, we should do the
Lincoln empire more damage, at less cost,
than by any land invasion of their territories.
The peculiar sensitiveness which the north
MANIFESTED, long ago, m regard TO prlvateerS,
ought at once to have taught us where our
blows could be most effectively struck. They
would never have singled out privateers-men
as the objects of peculiar vengeance, and
threaten to treat them as pirates, if they had
not felt that the privateers were assailing their
weak spot, and that when we had only two or
three little vessels upon the waters.
Now that we have several efficient vessels,
SAILING faS and well armed thpV thrown
into commissions, and begin to tremble for the
future. 1t is evident that the true way to re-
taliate for their plumber upon land is to assail
them upon the seas, and make it a matter of
uncertainty, whenever ship leaves north
ern port, whether she will ever arrive at her
anticipated haven. For this purpose we must
increase our navy and our privateersmen,
and if the enemy undertake to make any dis
tinction between them and any other class of
our fighting men, to retaliate, life for life, on
every prisoner in our hands.

The necessity of a larger force of efficient
cavalry has induced Gov. Andrew to apply to
the secretary of war for permission to raise
regiment which shall equal in the character of
its officers and in the efficiency of its men and
horses any corps which has been mustered
into the service. The efforts of some of the
most patriotic and influential citizens in vari-
Gus parts of the state will be directed to the
execution of the plan. 1t is supposed that
forces now being raised in Massachusetts will
be attached to the grand army corps Of Gen.
Banks.
The excitement in France on the Roman
question is said to be diverting attention from
American affairs. Those who were most Bit
terly opposed to us are so much engrOssed in
discussing that subject that they are doing
comparatively little now against us. The en-
peror, however, is not so much engaged in it
that he neglects his Mexican expedition.
The United States military storekeeper at
Washington reported on the 29th ult. that
within the last week he received 81, 900 blan-
kets, which were being issued daily to the
army, and that he had shipped for tile army of
the Potomac, from the oath of October to date
$4,000 uniforms, $4,000 of which have been
sent down to Harper's Ferry and that neigh
borhood.
An extraordinary balloon ascension is
gravely proposed in England. Mr.. Glaisher,
whose remarkable account of an ascent to a
height of six miles was published in the Spy
some time since, has been challenged by Mr..
Simons to ascend with him to height of
eleUen miles. Mr.. Glaisher replied that he
had no doubt that by taking up sufficient oxy-
gen higher point might be attained; but he
thought the risk too great.

"HoME, SWEET HOME. TO the question,
''Can l do anything for you, my man? ?" asked
patients by hospital visitors, the answer, Of
ten, very often, is, "Can't you get me leave
of absence? l want to go home" This comes
from as brave and true hearts as ever beat
steadily in battlefront men who have under
gone hardships, and hunger, and fatigue,
without a murmur-but who find themselves
Frustrated by wounds or by sickness-and
whose thoughts now turn toward loved ones
at home. What sick man, on hard bed, in
a room filled with other sufferers, exposed to
| the gaze of the curious, often experimental
on by young 'sawbones," and with few cove
ted delicacies, would not yearn for home COM
forts, for the pillow smoothed by beloved fe-
male hand, and for the cheering society of
watchful friends? Gov. Andrews proposition,
that wounded men be sent to their own states,
is hailed with exceeding great joy by the in
mates of the hospitals, and they ''want to go
home" In Heavens name let them be taken
there, and that as soon as possible.
