Description: "The enthusiasm of the Northern armies- re-enlistment of the Seventeenth Army Corps. Financial tests convinced the supporters of the rebellion here and in Europe of one great fact, that the people of the North had faith in the United States Government, and that the people of the Southern States had no faith in their government, set up by a knot of disappointed politicians. While Alabama troops were shooting down Kentuckians who refused to re-enlist, the Federal Army almost unanimously re-enlisted. Hence the difference. There was no want of faith in the Federal cause, the Government, or success. In some corps almost all the regiments re-enlisted; in the Seventeenth Army Corps thirty-nine took their stand as verterans. We give artistically a view of this army enthusiasm."— Frank Leslie, 1896
