  • @hollister4ev, these photographs are original. Collodion photography started in the 1850's and could produce very crisp black and white images on sheets of tin or glass. Look at the work of Matthew Brady as the most famous example. The "yellow" quality to which you refer usually shows up on what are known as albumin prints which are copies of the original (black and white) on heavy paper which had a yellow color. Sepia photography wasn't invented until later.

  • hey can somebody answer my quetion? my quetion is why were TAMBOURINES  so important in the civil war????????? please answer my quetion please go to my chennel and answer it in my comment box

  • this is the vice president song

  • some of these pictures are from the civil war put some are to clear and not yellow enough to be from the civil war

  • hollister4ev: They're probably black and white reproductions of original sepia photographs. Some of these pictures may be from books. Color plates are expensive when you're talking about a published book with thousands of copies, so I can definitely see publishers cutting costs by printing the sepia photographs in black and white.

  • no , they're original because todays reanactors are fat slobs, and these guys are all normal!

  • This is used as the march for the Vice President of the United States now.

  • Down with the criminal CONfederacy --

    God Bless The USA!

  • For lyrics and history, see Wikipedia entry.

  • hail colimbia was r first anthem

  • 1:41 What kind of uniform was that?

  • Those were called Zouvares - they were Union uniforms of a unit formed in New York. Turbans and bright red sashes - supposedly in a "tribute" to French foreign legion type fighters.

  • @LordShadrach That unit is the 114th PA Infantry "Collis' Zouaves"

  • @LordShadrach They look like Collis Zouaves. 114th Pennsylvania. Hard to say though. There were numerous variations on the zouave uniform. Given the popularity of french uniforms and military customs in the 1860s, zouave units formed in most states of the Union. New York Zouaves have a particular notoriety thanks to Col. Elmer Elsworth and his 11th NY Fire Zouaves. In the winter of 63-64 the 140th NY was redesignated as zouaves as well. They fought at Saunders Field.

  • I hate to break it to you all but the United States of America did not have a national anthym untill the dawn of world war I

  • 1931 to be exact. That was when the Star-Spangled Banner became the Official National Anthem. I prefer the Official Anthem over this any day.

  • this should be the national anthem not the gay ass drunk british one "Star spangled banner" lol

  • The music was composed by Philip Phile  (c. 1737-1793) as "The President's March" and performed at the inauguration of President Washington. It was posthoumously arranged and given lyrics by Joseph H. Hopkinson. The song premiered on April 25, 1798, performed by Gilbert Fox. The arrangement in the video I linked is by the British composer Michael Nyman.

  • APPROVED BY THE ANGEL OF MUSIC

  • This is America's former national anthem, before The Star Spangled Banner was adopted.

  • ...and is now the Vice-Presidential anthem.
