There is no irony between the three fifths compromise and the 13th Amendment to the US Constitution. The former act was based on the number of slaves that existed in a State for the purposes of counting a State's population and therefore its number of seats in the Hose of Representatives. This was clearly put aside as the amendment abolished slavery.

Which amendment had no impact on the Constitution since it repeals one of the others?

That would be the amendment repealing prohibition. The 18th amendment established prohibition, and the 21st repealed it. However, to say that these amendments had no impact on the Constitution is not correct. The 18th amendment became part of the Constitution as truly as any other part, and the 21st did also. This had a major impact on the Constitution, and on the people as well.

Can a Constitutional Amendment be repealed by Executive Order?

If you mean by the president, or by the executive branch, no. There is a pretty intense process to repealing, as well as ratifying an amendment, because amendments are pretty much ultimate law. I pretty much gave you a dumbed down version, you can also read the constitution.
