How did cameras work in the Civil War?
Cameras were different during the Civil War. They were huge, bulky, and could be very expensive. They used glass, not plastic film. Whatever they were shooting had to stand still or it wouldn't be a clear picture. That is why there was very few pictures of battles that occurred during the Civil War. More often than not, artists were hired instead to draw what was going on.
Why was there so much of corruption during president grants presidency?
Unfortunately, just because someone was a famous general (as Grant was) does not necessarily make the person an effective president. Ulysses S. Grant seems to have hired too many friends and relatives, rather than selecting people who were qualified for the positions he assigned to them. Patronage (giving jobs in the government to big donors or big supporters, whether they have the right experience or not) has been a long-time problem in government, and Grant's administration certainly exemplified it.

What lead to the civil servic?
Before the civil service system, employees of the federal government were hired or fired, promoted or demoted, on the basis of favors owed to political supporters (the "spoils system") and not on the basis of their ability to do the job. Some of those appointees did not have the ability to do their jobs while others did not even try, knowing that they would not be fired no matter how poor a job they did. The spoils system was at its worst, many feel, during the administration of President Ulysses S. Grant (1869-1877), and many members of the public called for a change. Support for a change in the system became even stronger in 1881 when newly-elected President James A. Garfield was assassinated by an mentally-disturbed man who was angry that he did not get the federal job he thought he deserved.
