The 13th section of the Act of July 17,1862, defin? ing tho penalties of treason and insurrection, is in j . the following terms : , The President is hereby authorized, at any time hereafter, by proclamation, to extend to persons who may have participated in tho existing rebel-1 lion in any State or part thereof, pardon and am- ' ne3ty, with such exceptions, and at such timo, and on such conditions, as he may doem expedient for tho public wollare. We cannot doubt that tho President intends, and the country oxpoots, that all; or nearly all, of the excepted classes will, sooner or later, bo par? doned. If this is to be the final result, the sooner it is consummated the bettor. Tho persons yet unpardoned are tho mon of wealth, the mon of en? terprise, tho mon whose capital and business ca? pacity aro needud to relieve the South from its industnal stagnution, and renew ita prosperity. The oases aro all so nearly alike, the orime is so precisely tho same, not diftering at all in nature, .and but httlo in degree, that there is no good rea? son why every case should receive a separate ex? amination at tho hands, of tho President A new amiioBty proclamation for tho immediate re hef of all classes, ia one of the fitteat thinga the President could execute. '.-We deem it important that he should publish such an amnesty now, before tho mooting of Con? gress, lost that body should repeal the section above quoted, and then deny tho authority of tho President to take any further action. The Radi? cals want to keep the remaining cases, BB the only means they have left of terrifying the 8outh into a ratification of the pending jor some more objec? tionable constitutional amendment. Tho Presi? dent should promptly take this weapon out of their hands. His authority to do so now is undoubted 1 and incontrovertible, for Congress itself has ex? pressly conferred it. 'If that permission should be repealed at tho beginning of the session, his authority would be open to question; and if, after a repeal he should ace in manifest defiance of the will of Congress, they might make it a ground of unpetwinuent.-2?. 1. Wwid, Mto, 15* IiETTHR FROM . WASHINGTON. WASHINGTON, Novembor 17, 1866.-Little TOM MOORE long ago called this the City of Mag? nificent Diatancea. If he were to ro-visit our National ?apital he would call it a city of mag? nificent jobbing. I do not know that there is more lobbying hero than at other seats of National Governments, though it is fair to assume it, as the word itsolf is of nativo American growth. There may be, doubtless is, jobbing in other capi? tals, but it is less a matter of public notoriety. Washington ia a mere village as compared with the great Capitals of Europe; and everybody soon knows everybody's business. Beforo the war even there was much jobbing in Congress. Tho public printing for yoarB has boen considered a ' 'fat" thing. Building forts and ships, getting contracts for furnishing rations, &c, al? ways attracted money-loving citizens from every section of the Union. But all t is was mero child's play to the jobs arising out of tho war. Innumer? able fortunes wera made out of all Borts of con? tracta. The mere disbursing of so much green? backs attracts vast numbers of cormorants to thia point. The public lands, the bounties, the Patent Office, tho vast amount of Government property of evory description, accumulated through tho four years of war, and now to bo disposed of, as well as a hundred 'othor considerations, all offer so many inducements for adventurers, speculators and harpies of every Bort, to congregate within tho charmed precincts of tho capital. The several departments employ armios of dirks, and aspirrng ladiea, of strong minds and indiffer? ent morals, crowd hither from |ar and wide, smil? ing their sweetest, and besieging their "influen? tial" friends, till they overcome the obduracy of the most stohd M. C., anda vacancy must be cre? ated, if there be noue. Il is said that this state of things is not tho most conducivo to a healthy state of morals. I have not been here yet long enough myself to be entitled to an opinion, but if there is any truth in old LAVATOB'S facial theories, I fully endorse the ouxr?nt'opiiiion on this subject. Everybody ia on tho qui vioe for the approaching session of Congroaa. It is the ono great epoch of Washington lifo. Eomove the capital to-morrow, and the placo will soon revert to its pristine con? dition of miasmatio desolation. Although the city haa grown to a very respectable size in little over half a century, still the wonder to me ia* that it has not made more progress.'' Indians and buf? faloes roamed over the sites of some of the mam? moth cities of the Wost when President MONBOE waa holding 'his levees, hero, and now they are great centres of population, commerce, manufac? turo, and even of culture, while Washington still depends , for itBvery Ufe; on the presence 6i the Government and,ita expansivo machinery.! Tho population hete still consista only of tho various attaches of Uncle barn's office, and the crowd of . proletarians,.boarding and lodging house keepers; ai?d-?lK4ho-various.otherlaini/stprs to tbje.wa^Afif, ? these .officiais., Government -pap al?n?; 'keabs Washington alive. '< ' ? ' " ,' " " ' There is great anxiety hore at present as to what Congress will do, and scarcely leas as to what the President will do. There are numerous 'pro jranftnea laid down by the partisans of the rival owera, and you cannot go any whore without earing this momontoua topic "Will tho Presi? dent back down ?" "Will Congress impeach him?" "WU1 tho Sonate confina the President's appoint? ments?"

It required but a few minutes to complete tho work of total destruction. A stately building, full of machinery and busy with the induatryof two hundred porsonB employed in it, was almost in a twinkling wholly consumed. The Bulletin thus spoaks of the loss sustained and tho origin of the fire: No one appeared to bo on tbo ground who could give the slightoat duo to tho origin of tho fire, and tho general opinion of those who wont waa that tho conflagration was accidental. An investi? gation will doubtleaa bo made into tho matter. The owners of the Memphis Cotton Mills were J. W. Page, Esq., George H. Chook, Eaq., and W. B. Wiggs, Esti. They estimated tho loss on ma? chinery and building at $187,000; matorial $15,000. Total, $202,000, ou which there aro policios of iu aufance to the amount of $90,000. Some of tho city offices will suffer soverely, but tho particulars will not be known lill to-day. There is not a person in tho city but will Bympa thizo with the owners of the mills in their great IOSB, and the working-men, women and children being turned out to face the gloomy winds and storms of wintor, without employment.

IMPORTAMT DECISION. j Tho Statute ot Limitations Suspended by tUe War, ?ce. i We learn from the Baltimore Sun, of Friday, that ! an important decision has just been rendered in the Circuit Court of the United States for Mary? land, by Judge GILES, in tho case of the Jackson Insurance Company, of Memphis, Tenn., against JAMES A. STEWART. This was an action on a bill of exchange drawn in Memphis, in February. 1861, at sixty days, on James A. Stewart, payablo at tho Farmers and I Planters' Bank in Baltimore, and accepted by Stewart, but protested for non-payment April 26, 1861. Plea, statute of limitations. Replications-lat. That war existed when the ? cause of action accruod, and that three years had not elapsed between tho close of the war and the commencement of tho suit. 2d. That tho Presi? dent of the Umted States declared war against Tennessee by his proclamation of August 16, 1861, which was in force until, by tho proclamation of tho President, June 13,1865, Tennessee was re? stored to tho Union, and that tho intervals of time which elapsed from tho maturity of tho bill to tho .beginmng of the war, and from tho closo of tho war to the commencement of this suit, did not to? gether amount to throe years. To these replications a general demurrer was filed by defendant. After full argument, tho court, Judge Gilos, de? cided as follows : Unquestionably in this case lex fori prevails, and not lex ioci conlralua ; hence the Court will apply the law of Maryland, which requires suits to be brought within throe years. 1 Md. Cons, art. 67, sec. I and 2. In this law thora are certain specified exceptions provided for; but it is a miatako to supposo that exceptions may not ariso other than those'men tioned in thu statute. The law always supposes the oxistonce of a party in being capable of suing; and if, when the cause of action accrues, there is no such party capable of suing, limitations do not begin to run until such a party comes into being. Hence, if war kaoYoxisted at tho timo this cause of action accrued, limitations would not have begun to run against plaintiff's claim until the war ended. On tho 7th of September, 1861, this court de? cided that the President of the Uni ?od States had the right by proclamation to rocoguizo the exist? ence of a state of war; and that the war, from and altor thO date Of BUCb proclamation, exibted botween tho Statoa montionod in the proclamation and the rest of the United States. Also, that the late war when so declared and recognized by tho President's proclamation, bocamo a civil war] and imposed upon both belligerents all the rights and oonsequenoes of such a war. This was one of the earliest decisions in regard to our late civil war. and the principles then enunciated have since boon fully confirmed by tho Supremo Court of tho United States in the Prize Cases, 2 Black, 636. The justicea'Vf that court wero unanimous as to all tho oonsequonces which resulted from a state of civil war; but the taroo dissenting judges were of opinion that the war began only ofter the pro? clamation of the President of August 16th, mil, Sassed in pursuance of power conferred upon him y the aotsof July 13th, 1881. As regards the State of Tennessee, there can be no doubt that war existed in consequence of th proclamation of.the President of August 16th '" and not before, .aa that State <troa not ' the jjrevioua proclamation. It ia, a well settled prinohfle th cbntrabta made auiirig the wi {?rinoiple is fully r?cogniz?d by' n regard to our late oivii war. , In ancient timoB private property mies, and debts of every kind, were confisca' tho State. Happily all this has boen changed in mod?, rn times, and now, while contracta made during war betwoon alien onomiod aro, absolutely void, hoing againat public policy, private' interoBta aro pro? tected, and bona fide contracts mado boforo the breaking out of a war an; suspended during ita existence, but revive at it.-? termination. To the honor of tho United States ?md Groat Bri lain bo it said that thoso rights have always boon reapocted by them, f It bau boon repeatedly decided by both State and Federal Courts that whoro, by a legislativo enact? ment, partioa aro provonted from prosecuting their claims, tho interval during which such pre? vention lasts is not to bo counted aa part of tho time allowed by tho atatiito of limitations. Now tho power to make war and peaco is, by the Con? stitution of tho United Skates, dologated exclu? sively to the Fodoral Qoverinent; and na during the war tho plaintiff, hoing a corporation of thc State of TonuoKseo, had no right to bring suit against tho dofendant, who was a citizen of Mary? land, tho Maryland statute of limitations was sus? pended during Buoh period. Tho gonorid rulo un? questionably ia, that where tho statute of limita? tion has once begun to rim, no subscquont (Usabili? ty will arrest it. But wo have already soon that a legislative onact mont suspends tho mulling of tho statute, and tho same result follows from tho declaration of war by tho supremo' power of tho land. For it io a well recognized principle of tho law of nations that the right of a croditor to sue for tho recovery of his debt is not extinguished by tho war; lt.is only sus? pended during the war, and rovivea in ?full force on the restoration of peace A war, then, having cortaiuly existed botwoon Tennessee and tho Fodo? ral Government, from the President's proclama? tion of August IGth, 18(51, and which, although a civil war, yet, according to tho decision of tho Supremo Court in tho prize casca, carrjod with it all the conaoquonoes and disabilities of a public war, it follows, therefore, that tho plaintiff in thin case could have instituted no proceedings in thia Court until poaco was proclaitnod by the Presi? dent's proclamation of Juno 13th, 1866. Thia suapenBion, hoing by tho exorcise of tho paramount authority of tho Government, cannot be held to work a forfeiture of tho plaintiff's cause of action, but that bia right to suo, sus? pended by tho war, revived when it ceased. And as it has not boen three years from the maturity of the cauae of action to tho commencement of the war, and from tho termination of tho war to the commencement of this suit, this suit is not barred uy limitationa, and tho demurer is, there? fore, overruled. Tho case being thon, by agrooment, submitted to tho court, judgment was given for tho full amount of the plaintiff's claim, together with in? terest from the 26th of April, 1861, to tho 16th of August, 1861, and from tho 13th of June, 1865, to date; no interest being allowed from the time dur? ing which tho war lasted.
