This (unexpected) Northern victory gave Lincoln the credibility to issue the Emancipation Proclamation, which officially turned the war into a crusade against slavery.

After that, neither Britain nor France could carry out their threat to intervene on the Confederate side, without looking pro-slavery. As both those countries had abolished slavery many years earlier, this was out of the question.
