First of all, the British underestimated the ability of Americans to fight. Second, the Americans were on home turf. They knew their way around, and knew the best tactics for fighting were not simply standing out in the open. Third, the Americans had a cause to fight for. If they were to lose, they would not have just lost a war, they would have lost their freedom and everything they had been working for. Those are just a few... there are many more out there.
The Battle of Antietam made the British realize that the Confederacy could not win the war. The Union had too much man power and they were industrialized, so they had a huge advantage in the supply arena. Britain knew that the Confederacy could not become a stable, sovereign nation. They were going to be too dependent on the north for industry whether they won the war or not.
Largely because, in the years since the war, it has been glorified as the "high water mark of the Confederacy". It was the last time that it appeared the South could actually have a chance at winning the war. Once the battle was over and the Union had clearly won, the Confederacy never again would make any major attacks against the Union; the Confederacy would spend the remaining two years or so of the war on defense.

It didn't. The Confederacy was the government formed by those states attempting to leave the Union. The two were at war. Michael Montagne Actually, the Union did depend on the Confederacy. With out the confederacy's contributions to the war and *mistakes* the Union would have never won.

Because the union had more troops and cut off the confederacy from supplies using the anaconda plan.
