Why did northern workers oppose abolition of slavery?
I don't know whether they formally opposed Abolition. But it is true that most Northerners were not greatly offended by the institution of slavery, and they certainly didn't leap into uniform to free Southern slaves. Even the Emancipation Proclamation did not convert many to the Abolitionist cause. Slavery was killed by the war itself - from when Lincoln ordered the troops to rob the enemy of his property, including slaves. Unless the Confederates were to win the war, these (ex) slaves could never be returned to their (ex) owners.

The Abolitionists were not very numerous, although they included some highly influential people. (Lincoln was not one of them.) After 'Uncle Tom's Cabin' was published, many more people became Abolitionists, but they still remained quitea minority.
