SLEEPING IN sGERMANY.-The Germans right.
ly call bed clothes bed cloths, (Bett Tucher).
Bed cloths is the word for they are nothing
but cloths. Cut to the exact size of the narrow
bed, they are laid over as aelose fit OfcOurse,
when human body is interjected between them
they are much less fit; and the proximity OF
the person to the air is exceedingly close and
confidential. A certain equivalent for this is
furnished in the down bed, for the opulent,
which rests upon the top of the cloths, or the
heavier feather bed, for the INDECENT. The
married people, Of plain life, sleep in two single
beds, each being 'sweet little isle" of its own,
while the two are afectionately contiguous.
The connubial neighbors can respectfully shake
hands, and wish good night and morning. But
the territory of each is distinct; the cloths are
cut separate each bed is complete by itself
and there is no continuousness Of bolster or iIn-
piled communslity of pillow.

A SrAnPEDR ON THE PRAIRIRs-About an
hour after the usual time at which the horses
were brought in for the night, hObbled and
otherwise secured near the tents and fires their
respective owners an indistinct sound arose,
like the muttering Of distant thunder As it
approached became mingled with the bowling
or all the dogs in the encampment, and with the
shouts and yells of the Indians In coming
nearer, it rose high above all these aecompani-
ments, and resembled the lashing of heavy surf
upon beach. On and on it rolled towards u.s.
and partly frem my own hearing, partly from
hurried words and actions Of the tenants Of our
lodge, gathered that it must be the fierce and
uncomfortable gallop Of thousands Of panic
stricken horses. AS this living torrent drew
nigh, sprang to the front of the tent, seized
my favOrite riding and, in addition to
the hobbies which confined her. twisted the
long lariat round her fore-legs, then led her
Immediately in front Of the fire, hoping that the
excited and maddened flock of horses would
divide, and pass on each side Of it. AS the gal
Looping mass drew nigh, our horses began to
snort, prick up their ears, and then tremble; and
when 1T burst upon Us, they became complete
ly ungoyernable from terror. All broke loose
and Joined their affrighted companions, except
my mare, which struggled with the fury of a
wild beast, and / only retained her by using all
my strength, and at last throwing her on her side
On went the maddened troop, trampling, in
their headlOng speed over skins, dried meat, &C.,
and throwing down some Of the smaller tents
They were soon lost in the darkness of night
and the wilds of the prairie, and nothing more
was heard Of them, save the distant yelping Of
the ours, who continued their Intellectual pur-
suit. This is stampede, and is one of the
most extraordinary scenes ever witnessed, as
may easily be imagined by any one who reflects
that this race Of terror is run in darkness only
partially lighted by the itful glare of half-ex-
tinguished fires, and that it is moreover run by
several thousand steeds, driven by terror to un-
governable madness
