Slaves were property. Property=money. Money allowed draft dodgers to legally pay some other man to take his place during the US Civil War.
The military draft system is rather complex and involves tens of thousands of people throughout the US. If there is no draft, then advertising budgets for recruiting have to be much larger. It would be hard to compare, as the draft is needed when there is a vast need for large numbers of soldiers.

They had large numbers of slaves... if that's what you're looking for. The Compromise of 1850 led to the Fugitive Slave Act, and that tightened the control of any runaway slave. Also, even when the slave tradewas stopped, the practice of slavery wasn't. Therefore, many slave owners bred the slaves they had a lot more rigorously than they would have if slaves were still being imported. because of that, the number of new slaves every year increased.

Historically, there were relatively few white slaves in Africa compared to the large numbers of African slaves taken to other parts of the world. The majority of slaves in Africa were Africans themselves, who were enslaved and traded by various groups within the continent.
Most people tend to remain near where their ancestors lived. Since a very large number of African Americans descend from Africans imported to the South to work as slaves, there are still large numbers of African Americans in the South.
Most of the southern colonies passed Slave Coded, or laws to control slaves. Colonies with large numbers of slaves had the strictest slave codes. For example, South Carolina's code said that slaves could not hold meeting or own weapons.
