People's Convention at Indianapolis.

Indianapolis, Feb. 23.

--The People's Convention is being held to-day. Delegates from nearly every county are present. William K. Edwards, of Vigo county, was chosen President, and there are Vice Presidents from each Congressional district.

Resolutions have been adopted declaring it the duty of all citizens to throw aside partisan interests and assist in any plan of adjustment to settle our national difficulties, recommending a National Convention to be called by Congress, of all the States, to which to refer our national difficulties, deploring the condition of the country and deprecating all attempts to maintain the Union by war.
