Without slaves the south couldn't trade or have as much business then they had with slaves. The north benefited of this because the south was getting more help in building weapons with slaves then they did alone.
Before the civil war it didn't affect the south, but after the war began the north had all the industrial growth and could produce things needed for fighting a war.

Yes, in the Battle of Antietam, the Army of the Potomac had 300 cannons. This was more than the Army of Northern Virginia which had 221 cannons. Although the North had more artillery in the Battle of Antietam, the effective use Lee's artillery helped the South from losing their entire army at Antietam.
