Best Answer

Immense relief that the British could not send military aid to the Confederates, as the war had now been turned into an official crusade against slavery. (Britain had abolished slavery in all its colonies in 1833).

If Britain had entered the war, the French would probably have followed suit, and the outcome might have been very different.
