Who did not agree with the abolitionist?

Before the US Civil War even many sound minded people in the North disagreed with the anti slavery abolitionists about slavery in the South. It should be noted here that even well into the US Civil War, slavery was lawful in the US State of Maryland and in Washington DC. For the most part the abolitionists wanted slavery to be abolished in the USA. Many people against slavery only wanted it to be contained in the Southern States. Prior to becoming US President, Abraham Lincoln pledged to the South that he had no wish to abolish slavery in the South. In fact, Lincoln did not believe the Federal Government had the authority to do so. It was also pointed out that where in parts of the world slavery had been abolished, compensation was paid to to the former slaveholders for their financial losses.
