The MASONIC CELEBH ALTON IN PH1LA-
DELpHIA.-Philodelphia, June 24.-The
Masons made an imposing parade to-day
for the purpose of laying the cornerstone
of their new temple on Broad street. A
copious shower of rain fell about the time
for assembling, but soon subsidized, and
served to lay the dust and make the march
pleasanter. They formed in twenty divi-
sions, including the following visiting
Lodges Centennial Lodge, No. Is, Washing
ton, D. c.; Manhattan, No. 62, and St.
Johns, No. ], of New York, and o Lodge
from New Jersey, and one from Stamford,
Connecticut. ...-. g.. .. -...s
The line occupied nearly one hour and a
half in passing given point, and included
q plentiful distribution of bands of music.
The Grand Lodge occupied the post of honor
in the rear.
To-day is the 134th anniversary of the
granting the first charter for Masonic
Lodge in Philadelphia. Many stores and
residences along the route We're decorated
with flags, and in Seventh street On arch OF

member belonging to the order, and pre-
coded the Grand Lodge. ...-. ,.,,,sa
On reaching the end of the route on Broad
street, the line opened and countermarehed,
the Grand Lodge passing through to occupy
it's position on the platform, covering the
area on which the temple is to be erected.

Veto Of the Omnibus Bill.

Special telegram to the Dispatch.
WASHINGTON, June 25, 1868.
The following is the message of Presi-
dent Johnson returning the omnibus re-
construction bill, with his objections H..
" To the House of Representatives:
sin returning to the House Of Repre-
sentatives, in which it originated, a bill
entitled An act to admit the States of
North Carolina, South Carolina, Loui-
siana, Georgia, Alabama, and Florida
to representation in Congress-, do not
deem Unnecessary to state at length the
reasons which constrain me to withhold
my approval. l will not, therefore, under
take at this time to REOPEN the discussion
upon the grave constitutional ques-
tions involved in the act Of March I'd,
1867, and the acts supplemental thereto
in pursuance of which it is claimed in the
preamble to this bill these States have
formed and adopted constitutions of State
government. Nor will Irepeat the objec-
tons contained in my message of the 10th
instant, returning without my signature
the bill to admit to representation the State
of Arkansas, and which ore equally appli'
cable to the pending measure. Like the
act recently passed in reference to Arkan'
sas, this bill supersedes the plain and simple
mode prescribed by the Constitution fol
the admission to seats in the respective
Houses of senator's and Representatives
from the several States. 1t assumes au-
thority over six States of the Union which
has never been delegated to Congress or il
even warranted by previous unconstitu
tional legislation on the subject of restora'
ton. 1t imposes conditions which ore IL
derogation Of the equal rights Of the States
and is founded upon theory which is sub
versive of the fundamental principles o.
the Government. In the case Of Alabama
it violates the plighted faith Of Congress by
forcing upon that State Constitution
which was rejected by the people according
to the express terms of on act of Congress
requiring that majority Of the registered
electors should vote upon the question o
its ratification. ..-. r.
"For these objections, and many Others
that might be presented, l cannot approve
this bill, aud therefore return it for TIT
action of Congress required in such cases
by the Federal Constitution.
