ESpectat Dispatch to The Chicago Tribune. Wasninaton, D.C., Feb, 8,—The bill of Repre- sentative Fort, tho purpose of which is to plico certain chomicals which enter into the munu- facture of paper, glass, aud woolen fabrics on tho free list, and to reduce the duty on printing- Mmiper, has not yet been formally considered by tho Ways and Means Committee, and, owlng to previous ongagements of the Committeo, proba- bly will_not be considored for some time to come. Col. Fort to-night, in spenking of tho cruses which Induced the bill, and of {ts pros- pects, sail in substance that his attention was first culled to the matter from the fact that the Increase In the price of paper was ikely to re- sult In grently incrensing tho price of school. books and in placing a burden upon Intolligence, and, believing that there should be ns few ob- stactes pluced fm thd road to knowledgo ts pos- sible, he commenced considering the cnse. Whilo doing so, be saw statements in the nows- papers that tho paper-manufacturers wero com: Dining to increase tho price, but he has not had any conferences with newspaper publishers, He immediately examined tho tariff question at the Treasury, and discovered that, WHILE MANY ANTICLES which enter into the manufacture of paper aro | ‘on the freo Ilst, soda-nah isnot. He also found that a great many articles taxed for other pur- poses aro freo, if used inthe manufacture of paper. Howns Jed to bellevo, therefore, that the paper manufacturers wero using tho oxist~ ence of tho taxon soda-nsh for increasing tho pricoof paper. He accordingly introduced 9 Dil, of which the following is tho text, providing for the reduction of tho tariff on wnsized print- {ug-paper from 2 to per cent ad valorem: “A IL to placo certain articles imported and used inthe munufacturo of paper, ot glass, and of woolen fabrics, on the free list, and to. reducs the import duty on printing-paper used for bouks, pamphlets, magazines, and news- pers: .

Some paper-makers, while admitting that tho duty on the chemicals fs tho samo as it Was a year ago, and that the price of LABOR HAS NOT MATERIALLY ADVANCED, Bay that thoy will oppose by every possible means tho reduction of the tariff for the reason that they think It just that thoy should reap a harvest’ now with other surviving industrios, and for that reason thoy have increnacd tho prico of paper. Fort is of the opinion that aan Practical fuct tho incrouso of price has been arbitrarily done by the manufneturers and it not required by any necessity of manufacture, us tho essential efementa of cost aro practically the same, Foreign mgs are not. higher, and aro duty free, and tt 1s very doubtful whother the Inborers receive bigher wages. Even the repro- rentatives of tho Pennayivunia iron interests have remonstrated with Fort that he should not tinker with tho tarif. ‘The Ways and Means Coranitteo hag not yet formally considered tho ‘Dili, and ft ts NOT POSSINLE TO FORECAST the fato of tho micusuro with accuracy; but It fs quite ‘probable that it witl be supported by Wood, Tucker, Morrison, Mills, Carlisle, Felton, and possibly Bunnell.

Feb. 8.--Tho coniltion of Polltical aMutra in Virginiu is being errefully studied by Repubileans in Washington. Tho breach between the Conservatives and Ree adjusters does not acom Ilkely to bo settled ho- fore the Prestdontial election, and tha question astowhat course tho Republicans shull take in view of this fact appears to be an openone. At A mecting of the Republican Congressional Com- mittee lust evening, this question fs sald to have been discussed, and the propriety of some nd- Visory netion by the Commitico was conaidoreit. It fs underatood that no nection was de- termined upon, but that the subject will be further considered ata mectivg to be held this week, Jt 1s reported that among the members of the Committee present last evuniug the pre- yalling sentiment appeared tao bo thut the Vir- ginta Republicans ought to hold Aloof from and to form no coalition with clthar wing of tho De- moeraoy Jn the coming campnign.

TIE GRANT MOVEMENT. FAILURES OF THE THIND TERM TO NOOM IN PENNSYLVANIA, Olncinnaté Gaxette. In respect to tho Hnrriaburg Convention's leading off in a race to nominate Gen, Grant, or to keep up the so-called Grant boom, or to firs tho flest gun for Grant, {t baa falled. Tho first gun bag inissed flro. Tho uttered basis of all the Grant movoment has beon that thore was an almost unnnimous popular demand for him. - It. Was supposed that Ponnaylyunta would deomon- strato this, It has beon tried, and has dovelaped an opposition which, welghing all tho elircum- atnnces, is in effects showing that a mnjority of tho Ropublicansare ppposed to Grant. For it must be romembered that Mr.-Cameron used all his powor to pack tho Convention. ‘On such a showing as this, {1 n State which was thought to bo sure far Gen. Grant, nolthor could ho afford to mako tho run for the nomination, nor could tho Republican party afford to nomi{- natabim. Wo say this with all due respect to Gen. Grant, but these are signa 80 cloar, and the matter isso important, that the Ropublicans of tho Nation must consider thom, And in thls wo fre remarking moro ‘on thoso that have tnken in hand the working upof an Appearance of 8 penuite tidal wave, to convince Gon. Grunt that. ie. as the unanimous demand, than ou Gon.Graut nself, itis very welt known that cortain sagaclous rsons who woro nearto Gen. Grant in tile Pres- donoy planned decply to make tho public atten- tions given to him fn foreign countrics a means of putting him again on the track of the Presi- denoy, and that to this end thoy mado not quite a fair uso of a not altogethor delicate clr- culur, lottor issued . through the Secreta of State, calling the attontion of all tho United States oilicors abrond to Gon, Grant's tour, and stating that any attentions shown him would confer a fuvor on the Government of tho United States, and that this letter not only muulo tha éropresontatives of our Governinent very active, but was used to show to forelyn Govern Banta as Beate thoy did to Gon. Grant ‘oy dd his country. ‘And thon it was easily argued at homo that tho ovations to Gon, Grant in Europe and Asia wore tributes to his personul greatness, and that ble own country ought nut to be behind forvlgn countrics in borioring: hor most famous citizen, ‘Thus was it planned that « tidal wave of Popthie ovations, beginning on his landing In the United Btatey, on the Tactic shore, was to carry biin into the Presidency with scarcely the form of nominating or cleoting. And of course all this was dealgned to convinco Gon. Grant that the people looked to him as thelr savior. Tho ap- pewance might have turned a head even more uvel than Gon. Grant's, “Hut tha Amorican people, as embodied in the ’ mass of the Ropublican party, aro also a level- headud people, They freely enjoyed those oeva- tions to Gen, Grant, wherever they wore wit- nesses to the speotacie, but they show very plaluly that thelr heads were not turned by thom.

That tho Republican Convention of Pennaytvanta, undor the load of Mr, Cameron, which In 187 adopted unanimously a resolution aguliet a third term, should now, by p little more thin a bare ma- Jority, declare for a third tern, fe a slyn of The tallioiity of conventions and of one-man leaderahip, Hut; on the whole, wo look upon the action of the Fonneyivanta Convention ag much more promising to the Republican pure ty than was uxpected when It was callod, It soems to bo an awakenlng which will bring the Republicuns to assort thoir control of them- selves.

Yes, it is perfectly clear to ny mind that Grant's friends are In the inlnority in Pennsylvania.” “ But, Governor, do you suppose Grant know that this wus to be done, and he t really a candi- date for the nomination ?"* “There tanot a hit of dott about hla having an" deen a candidate all alan “Do you think, Governor, that this action Is to be construed into n boom for Blaine, a8 has been done by offers?” “In answer to that.

AsT have sald before, it [s clear to me that the mujority of the Republicans in Pennaylyanta and the Nae tion do not want to see Gen. Grant receive a third nomination.” JAMES I. WILSON. A TALK ON STATE AND NATIONAL MATTERS. Correspmdence Cincinnath Commercial, Wasittxcron, D, C., Feb, 6.—James F. Wilson, of fown, has had a rathor eminent carcer. both as a Inwyerand aso legisiator. For years he wns a inember of tho House of Representatives, andata time when the country was disturbed by the clamors of civil revolution and the in- trlgues of party foes, Ho was ut that timo.tho coadjutor In the House uf such men as John A, Bingham, Rovert C, Schenck, and Thaddeus Stevens, and his name now, as then, is placed fn. the same coterlo 4 theirs. Sir, Wilson was ono of the seven Munngers of the House in tho impenabtnent trial of Andrew Johnson, and his epeech before tho Senate was considered tho best delivered on tho part of tho Managers, savo thatof Ohio's great and eloquent son, John A. Biogham. When Grant was elected President, and was fixing his Cubinct, he settled upon the name of Jumes &, Wilson for Secretary of State, and tendered him that appointment; but Wileon had determined, when he retired from tho House, to never agaln engage in politics, and 60 ho declined the high honor, aud then it was that Elibu B. Waahburne was given the compliment- ary nomination. 1t was a great surprise to every one save Wilson that the flattering noml- nation was not accepted by him, bubhe hadscen so much of the fever of politics that he pro- ferred to spend the rest of bis days in the quict. Prosecution of his logal business, which at that timo was extensive and lucrative.
