EXCITEMENT AT DONIPHAN.

Correspondence OF The chicago Tribune
Lawrence, X. r., Feb. II, 1853.
Quite an exciting affair occurred at DOnphan on
Sunday last. BY the arrival of Gen. Lane III town
we learn the particulars. 1t will be remembered that
few weeks since Free-State man named Walter
Latham shot down in the streets of that city by
o party Of rutians from AtcbisOn. Much feeling has
existed upon this occurrence. Mr.. Latham was q
man universally respected, and efforts have since
been made TO arrest the murderers and their accom-
piices.
On Sunday last, positive information having been
received of the completely of certain prominent Pro-
Slavery men, large meeting assembled at the hotel
and the following resolutions introduced and
passed:
Re.ossd That We the citizens Of Donph.n assembled pledge
each other dcotenaDce such conduct and 70

does believe, and upon his oath states, that the
three persons above named were accessories to the

After the affidavit read. a motion was made to
proceed to the houses of the parties Damed in order
10 arrest them. The men, however, fled on the ap-

upon, but escaped. Their buildings were burned

AN EXPLANATION
Editor Of The ". Y. Tyibrne.

To the Editor y The ". Y. Tytbsns.
SIR: A letter which appeared in your Issue of the
18th inst, the signature Of Parent" entitled
The Nineteenth Wsrd-The Lords Prayer ordered
out Of School,, does great in astice to Mr. Terrence
Farley, one of the Commissioners A statement smi.
lar to that Of Parent" appeared lately in The Er.
PRESS but has since been fully corrected by the Editors
Of that paper.
The facts simply these: During the first part Of
the present month the teschers Of the soho asked
Mr.. Farley whether their duty TO read chapter
OF the Bible and also TO repeat the Lords Prayer ss
the opening of the school. Mr. Farley referred them
to the 18th section Of the Bylaws, which provides
that each Department shall be opened with The
reading Of the Bible, without note comment,
during which time the doors shall be closed;" and
advised them TO exercise their best judgment under
that rule. few days after, resident Of the Nine.
teeDth Ward informed Mr.. Farley Of report that he
had ordered the Lords Prayer 10 be omitted from Tia
opening exercises. Mr.. Farley Immediately repaired
to the school, and in presence Of the teachers and
scholars of the Female Department contradicted the
report as entirely unfounded These facts the teach
ers OF the school are prepared to substantiste.
So far from Commissioner Farey's conduct beng
such Parent has represented II, am informed
that short time since he opened the exercises u ono
department Of the school, duriDg the absence of .
teacher, by reading portion of the Scriptures, and
repeating the prayer which your correspondent
alleges he has forbidden to be repeated. JusTIcE.
