Emanuel Leutze painted is the commander of the Continental Army (Washington) against Great Britain is daringly close to the bow a boat full of people surf the treacherous Delaware River on Christmas night, 1776. Comparison of the flag in the painting today with the flag, the symbols appear on the American flag today? Abraham Lincoln was the first U.S. president to use the image for political purposes. Alexander Gardner photograph on the screen the president during the last months of civil war.

N No homework, and do not mind if I do not believe me or her loss.

They are excellent questions, invites reflection. But you ask a lot of parents do your homework for you. It's a lot of convincing for you to do.

1860′s cameras and photography?

I was watching C.S.I. last night with my family and on the show someone said that during the civil war a person had to hold still for Five (5) minutes to have their picture taken.
I said no way, by the 1860′s cameras were faster than that.
So.. how long was a exposure for a portrait in the mid 1800′s

Depending on the light, it was 1 to 3 minutes. (I have several cameras from before the turn of the century.) Unless you were indoors using lantern light (most shots were done outside) I can’t image it taking 5 minutes. The paper was far more light sensitive than they are giving it credit for.
