Best Answer

The slave population of the south continued to grow, doubling from 2 million in 1830 to 4 million by 1860. Even though the international slave trade had abolished in the United States by 1808, it didn't stop being a lucrative business. The natural reproduction of slaves, whether consensual or forced, was an economic plus for the slave owner.
