By 1862, Lincoln found it necessary to turn the war into a crusade against slavery, to keep the British from intervening on the side of the Confederates.
He could not actually free the slaves, but he told his troops to rob the enemy of his chattels, which included slaves.
If the North did eventually win, then it was obvious that these (ex) slaves could never be returned to their (ex) owners.

Was slavery more popular in the south or the north?
Slavery during the Civil War in the United States was prominent in the Southern. The Confederate states in the South were in favor of slavery while the Union states in the North were opposed to slavery.
Was slavery over when the civil war ended?
No. Some citizens in the border states (e.g. Kentucky, West Virginia) that sided with the North owned slaves. The Emancipation Proclamation only freed slaves in "still in rebellion" southern areas of the time. Yet, as obviously seen today, slavery in these states died out. African American slavery in the South was put to a stop largely by Civil War events and an amendment to the Constitution. But keep in mind that the Civil War did not stop slavery permanently. Worldwide- the US included- slavery still goes in various forms and it effects Africans and other ethnic groups as well. Today's modern slavery relies heavily on human trafficking in many cases. So, the Civil War in direct and indirect ways did lead (or contribute) to the end of the plantation slave era in the American South. It did not end the general slavery that still goes on (on a small scale) in the United States today.
