THURSDAY, February 81.
EXERCISE OF THE VETO.

The following message was received from
the President of the United States.
To the House IF Representatives. Of the
United States.
Having examined and considered the
bill, entitled An Ac. Incorporating the
Protestant Episcopal Church in the town Of
Alrxandris, in the District of Columbia"
now return the Dill 70 the House of Re-
pres natives, in which it originated, with
the following objections:
Because the bill exceeds the rishtful au
,hority, to which governments are limited
by the essential distinction between civil and
religious functions, and violates, in parti-
GUAR, the article of the constitution Of the
United States which declares, that +" Con
gress shall make no law respecting a reli.
rious establishments" The bill enac.s into
and establishes BY law, suudry rules and
proceedings relative purey,o the organiza-
ton and politv of the church Incorporated,
and compromising even the election and
removal OF the minister OF the same 50
tina, no change could be made therein BY
the particular society, or by the general
church OF which it is member, and whose
authority it recogniz S. This particular
church, therefore, would so far be a rell.
gous establishment by law; legal force
and sanction being given to certain articles
in its constitution and administration. Nor
can it be considered that the articles thus
established are to be taken as the descrip.
tive criteria, only, of the corporate identity
of the society; inasnuch as the identity
must depead on other charac,eris,ics as
the regulations established are generally
unessential and alterablr, according to the
principles and cannons by which churches
Of that denomination govern themselves !;
and as the inlunctions and prohibitions con.
tanned in the regulations would be enforced
by the penal consequences applicabls 10 4
violation Of them according to the local
law;
Because the bill vests In the said incor.
porsted church an authority to proyias for
the support OF the poor, aud the education
of poor children of the same: an authority
which, being altogether superauous if the
provision is 70 be the result Of pious chart
