The Petition for the Removal of Gen. Bragg.

The Columbia Carolinian says:

‘ The memorial to the President (which was only not presented to him, because he arrived at Chattanooga and personal conference with the officers made it unnecessary,) was signed by two Lieutenant-Generals, two Major Generals, seven Brigadier-Generals, and one Colonel commanding a brigade. The distrust of Gen. Bragg was then generally prevalent. Whether it was well founded or not, and whether any of the officers then entertaining it have seen fit to change their mind or not, we do not pretend to say.
