Nice paint jobs on the Shenandoah figures. Keep up the good work. Only one observation for you. The hunting horn on the kepi of the cavalry trooper is an infantry device.

thanks..can i have a picture for correct my error?...because i am not too expert in civil war

You should find these of use. The hunting horn is the Infantry badge and the crossed swords is for cavalry

The correct device for the cavalry would be a pair of crossed sabers as Bob posted above. BUT they seldom seen on Confederate kepis so I would just remove the hunting horn and re-paint and you will still have an accurate trooper.
 
Nice work. During the ACW the confederates grabbed whatever they could as they weren't outfitted with such expensive uniforms as the Union men so you can look at it one of two ways. Either paint over the bugle insignia on the kepi or imagine your cavalryman found a kepi and kept it for himself. In the marvelous world of a modellers imagination either way works.
