After the victory at Antietam, Lincoln thought that it was appropriate to do this in order to save the Union. His main concern at the time was saving the union.

At the Battle of Antietam (Sharpsburg) in September 1862. This unexpected Northern victory enabled Lincoln to issue the Emancipation Proclamation without making it look like a desperate gesture.
