How did the 1862 US Congress act to end slavery in the North?

During the course of the US Civil War, President Lincoln actively pursued plans to end slavery on a voluntary basis. For the most part, he had the support of the US Congress. In March of 1862, the US Congress endorsed Lincoln's plan for national compensated emancipation. However, it did not provide any funding for this plan. In 1862, Lincoln's plan would not have worked in the Rebel Confederacy, however, in the North, his plans had a chance to begin the process of gradually abolishing slavery with Federal funds used to compensate slave owners.


What caused US President Lincoln to believe that the South would never yield on their position on slavery?

The first year of the US Civil War, US President Lincoln spent allot of time pondering about what could be done to end the war as quickly as possible. It was clear that the South's desire was to perpetuate slavery and thus the cause of the rebellion. He had labored hard to persuade the Border States to accept the idea that slavery with could be gradually abolished with proper compensation from the government for the loss it its slaves. Lincoln believed that if the Border States agreed to voluntarily begin a gradual end to slavery that the Confederacy would lose what ever chance they had in convincing those states to join with the South. Perhaps even to the degree of returning to the Union.Lincoln was sadly disappointed that even by July of 1862 none of the Border States was going to accept the gradual end to slavery. Even Delaware with less than 2,000 slaves, and not on plantations, would not agree with Lincoln's proposals. Lincoln even put forth that the time sequence could stretch as long as two generations. Since these states would not budge on slavery, Lincoln concluded that the Confederacy wouls also never yield its position on slavery.


Why did President Lincoln begin the civil war?

President Lincoln did not initiate the Civil War; rather, it began when Confederate forces attacked Fort Sumter in April 1861, following the secession of several Southern states from the Union. Lincoln's primary goal was to preserve the Union and maintain federal authority. His administration sought to address the issue of slavery, which was central to the conflict, but the war was fundamentally about the survival of the nation as a unified entity. Lincoln's response to the secession and subsequent hostilities marked the beginning of a conflict that would ultimately reshape the United States.
