Best Answer

The British, or more generally any foreign aid from countries which imported Southern cotton. Southern hope for support from the British ended when President Lincoln introduced the Emancipation Proclamation, since aiding the pro-slavery South would make the British look like hypocrites. (They had banned slavery earlier in the Century)
