[FUtllM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.] Wash?*?*?.on Ott. September 0. -Bend yon Homo items of news from thia politi cal metropolis, which may be of interest to your .?.adore. Thero arc at present many Southerners hore, -principally Virginians, seeking pardon for them selves and friends. Generally successful in their own cascH, tlioy find the President chary iu grant ing pardons at the instance of third parties, since the exposure in tho case of Hon. Tnos. OottWUf, -who pocketed $500 for serving one of his friends in z ?.hnilar exigency. In most cases the expense and inconvenience of a journey to Washington for ibis purpose may as well he avoided. Tho pe titioner con make out liis petition at the place of Ii?b resida?'.o. enclose in it the amneuty oath sub scribed before the proper officer, and transmit it io the Governor of the State, who will endorse on ithis approval, and forward it to the United Stales Attorney-General. The pardon will then be mado out, and iu a few days placed on the President's table. If time is of importance, personal applica tion to tho President is necessary to have it taken up and signed ont of its turn, otherwise it will bo signed in its order, and transmitted through the fitato Department to the petitioner. The Po?to?ioo Department lias authorized con tracts with the several railroads in our State for the carrying of tho mails, but a serious, if not in surmountable, obstacle to. the consummation of iliis highly desirable arrangement is presented in She Act of tho United States Congress of July 2, 1862, "To prescribe au oath of oflico, and for other purposes," which is as follows: "Re it enacted hy the Senate and House of Rep resentatives, in Congress assembled, That horeaf ter every person elected or appointed to any oflico of honor or profit under the Government of tho United States, cither in tho civil, military or na val departments of the public service, excepting the President of the United States, Bhall, before entering upon the duties of such office, and before being entitled to any of the salary or other emolu ments thereof, take and subscribo the following oath or affirmation: 'I, A B, do solemnly swear (or affirm) thut I havo never voluntarily borne arms against the United States since I have been a citi zen thereof; that I have voluntarily given no aid, countenance, counsel, or encouragement to per sons engaged in armed hostility thereto; that I Lave neither sought nor accepted, nor attempted to exercise tho functions of any office whatever, under any authority, or pretended authority, in hostility to tho United States; that I have not yielded a voluntary support to any pretended gov ernment, authority, power, or constitution within tlje United States, hostile or inimical thereto. And I do further swear (or affirm) that, to the best of my knowlcdgo and ability, I will support and de fend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear trno faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reserva tion or purpose of evasion; and that I will weiland faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter?So help me God;' which said oath, so takon and signed, shall be pre served among the files of tho Court, House of Con gress, or Department, to which the said office may appertain. And any person who Bhall falsely take the said oath shall bo guilty of perjury, and on conviction, in addition to tho penalties now pre scribed for that offence, shall bo deprived of his office, and rendered incap&blo forever after of holding any office or place uuder tho United States?' As the Poetmastcr-General consider? that this oath applies to contractors as well as postmasters and other employees of the Department, it is dif ficult to perceive how tho postal service is to be executed in tho South, mid especially in South Carolina, where nearly the entire community were positively or acquiescently involved in resistance to the Government. It is very probable that the entire service may hare to he suspended until Congress shall have an opportunity of modifying of repealing the law. "Notwithstanding rumora to tho contrary, there "have been no new appointment of postmasters at Charleston or Columbia. .Mr. WiUiifl Dr-huono has beon appointed a ?Commissioner of Direct Tax for your State, in place of Judge Coolev. The Board may bo expected to meet in Charleston next month. Mr. Doryea, who has been in this city some days, left yeitorday for New York, on a visit to Mr. Mc Corhick, confined in Fort Lafayetto? having re ceived permission to do so from the War Depart ment. The friends of Mr. McCobmick have good -reason to hope for hie liberation in a fews days.

WA8UENOTON, September 5.?The State Depart ment is in receipt of advices from tho Uniteil States Consul at Palermo, dated August 14. . Ho speaks of tho serious spread of the cholera at An colia, Italy, where somo eight hundred people have died, and isolated cases havo happened in other towns of Italy, Franco and Spain. The lo cal authorities have authorized soven days of ?niurantino for all arrivals from all Italian, French, and Spanish ports, including Gibraltar. Tho United States Consul stationed at Port Mn hon informs the State Department, under dato of August 14, of the arrival at that quarantine of a Turkish steamer, which left Aloxandria with one 'thousand eight hundred pilgrims. Tho Btoamcr. be Bays, conies with one thousand two hundred and eighty, and reports having left on the wnyllvc hundred. Twenty deaths occurred from cholera on tho passage The captain on his arrival at Port Manon reported all well, but on examination of tho steamer dead bodies wcro found on board in a sad state of decomposition. Tho captain's statements are discredited, and tho five hundred not account ed for may have died by tho same ?disease. The Consul states that the accounts received at that station concur in the opinion that the cholera is making its way westward. Thus far tho cholera has followed the pilgrims, who, he says, are packed liko sardines on shipboard. Their religion does not allow them, while passing to and from Mecca, to sleep on a bed, to wash, or cat any warm food. They arc covered with filth and vermin, and arc spreading disease all over tho Mediterranean. FROM THE rACIFIC COAST. Ban Francisco, Sept. 5.?There has been no news from the Shcnandoah since the arrival of the Nile. Three more vessels were recently purchased in this city to be employed as whalers. Four vessels are on the berth for Hong Kong, charging $G for fiviglit. The annual State election takoB place to-morrow for Supreme Judge and members of the Legisla ture, who will elect a successor to' Senator McDougall. The contest is confined principally to rival divi sions in the Republican party, favoring different Senatorial candidates. In San Francisco thrco tickets are running, viz: The regular Democratic, tho regular Republican, and the independent Union, the latter representing the interest of tho people's party in regard to local legislative affairs. The contest M very spirited and bitter. IMPORTANT FROM MISSOURI?THE "TEST" OATH?THE CLEROV, METHODISTS AND BAPTISTS, AS WELL AS CATHOLICS, REFUSE TO TAKE IT.

Wc take the following article from the Now Or leans Times, of a recent date, and though thero aro opinions expressed which may not he justified by results, still there are points in it which will be of interest : The question of tho admission of Representa tives in CongrcsB from Stales lately in rebellion is aeatuning considerable importance, and ?h load ing to much discussion among politicians and edi tors over the wliole country. With regard to tho numerical strength of tlic parties m the next House, the admission or rejection of Representa tives from the lately rebellious States will make no material difference, because even if every district in the South were represented, and the Soulhern members were to unite with the Democrats in tho House, the Republicans would still bo in a majori ty of about twenty votes. Tho chief point in the discussion, therefore, relates not to tho control of the House by one political party or another, but has reference only to the manner and tho proba bility of securing for the South the admission of its Representatives. Many Republicans contend "that Senators and Representatives shall not bo received from any State heretofore declared in re bellion against the United States, until by an act or joint resolution of Congress, approved by the President, or passed notwithstanding his objec tions, such State 6hall have been lirst declared to have organized a just local government, republi can in foxm, and to be entitled to representation in the respective Houses of Congross. This is the language of an amendment proposed by Mr. Wilson, Representative from Iowa, to the reconstruction bill which was under debate laut February: and this is_ tho conclusion lo which the Judiciary Committee in the United States Senate arrived in reporting on the caso of tho two Sen ators elected from Louisiana last year. Indeed, Judge Trumbnll, the chairman of tho committee, and speaking for the committee, oo stated in his report, ??.nd offered a re??ntion recognizing tho new Constitution and Govcrnmont of Louisiana, preparatory to the admiesion of her Senators. This report was presented and ordered to bo printed on the 18th of February lost, and on tho 4th of March CongresB adjourned without voting on tho question. On th? other hand, many men in the South contend that no such resolution of Con gresB ia necessary; that tho State uover having ccn out of the hnion, no formal act of rcadmis sion is requisite; that Senators and Representa tives from the South must bo admitted to all tho rights and privileges of the respectivo House? on a ?implo presentation of their credential?. It is contended that the Clerk of the House has no dis cretion in the matter of making the list and call ing the names of members elected to tho next House; that ho cannot disregard or reject the Representatives from the Southern State.; that he must call their names as well as those from tho most loyal States, and give them a voico iu the or ganization ol the House and tho olection of it? of ficers. The question as to what the Clerk ought lo do is decided differently by different persons, and per haps public curiosity would be bettor satisfied by knowing tehat the Clerk will do. To answer tliis question as far as wo are able, we have, with much care, directed onr investigations into tho most au thentic sources at onr command. Our conclusion is, that the Clerk will not read the names of tho members from States lately in insurrection. Now for onr reasons : The Clerk, Edward McPherson, was himself a member of tho Thirty-sixth ana Thirty-seventh Congress, is from the Gettysburg District, Penn sylvania, and a? such be acted throughout with tue Radical members. Ho was an active member of the Committee on Military Affairs, and bas written or rather compiled a book on "Tho Re bellion." His votes in the House show that he was opposed to the admission of Southern mem bers. On the question of the admission of Messrs. Flanders and Hahn, from Louisiana, in February, 1863, the voto stood ninety-two yeas, forty-four nays. Mr. McPhorson voted nay. In ordor to prevent the recurrence of the questions which had arisen and been fully and lengthily argued, in tho Louisiana case, relative to the powers of Military Governors to order and conduct elections, and tho peculiar status of the rebellious Stats, two bilis were introduced, one by Mr. Moynard, providing for future Congressional elections in Tennessee, and one by Mr. Hahn, for the same purpose in Louisiana. Both these bills passed the House one being added to the other as an amendment? by a vote of one hundred and four yeas to twenty seven nays. Mr. McPherson voted in favor of these bills. This subject was under discussion in the Senate when that body adjourned, and did not reach a anal vote. About this time thero were indications that the political complexion of the next House of Repre sentative? would be doubtful. This, and the know ledge that Mr. Emerson Ethcridgo, the then Clerk, was bocoming openly dissatisfied with the eman cipation policy of Mr. Lincoln, was getting him into disfavor with the Republicans, and led the latter to fear tho course Mr. Etheridge might pur sue at the organization of tho next (twenty-eighth) Congress. The Republicans, who were becoming very mach prejudiced against the Clerk, feared that tho latter might, if tho chances were favora ble, add and call a sufficient number of names as representativos from the South, at the organiza tion of tho next Congress, to secare hia re-elec tion as Clork, and gwo the organization to his friends. They therefore agreed to pass on act to regulate his duties, The Democrat- wore, also, afraid of some "tricks" which might bo played against tholr interests by tho Clork, and consc ?uentlv aided the Republicans in passing the bill, tidoeu, so well did the Republicans manage this business, that they had the bill ostensibly pro pared through tbo Committee on Elections, and offered in tho House by a Democratic member of tho committee. Tho bill passed tho Houso and Senate without debate, and received the signa ture of tho President, all in great baste, and on tho some day, March 3d, 1865. It roads thus: "27e it enacted, etc.?That before the first meotlng of the next Congress, and of every subsequent Congress, the Clork of tho next preceding Houso of Representatives shall make a roll of tho repre sentatives elect, and place thereon tbo names of all persons, and of such persons only, whose cre dentials show that they were regularly elected in accordance with tho laws of their States respect ively, or the laws of tho United States.''
