Hard to say; looks to be wearing a sack coat but the belt is out of place (no indication of officer's rank) but the buckle looks like a confederate pattern officers.
 
He looks like a Union infantryman to me. The buckle could be a militia buckle. The small revolver he is holding was probably a photographer's prop.
 
4 Button sack coat, early 2 piece US buckle-hard to tell. Small cal. pistol, Sheffield or Bowie knife. Looks like a dang Yankee to me. As far as a name, looks like a Tim to me. Yep, Tim the Yankee. That's my story and I'm stickin to it.
