I know there's been threads of when and if the Confederacy would have gotten rid of slavery if successful, which it seems most speculation being between the turn of the century and WW2.

But assuming there was no CW, when would the US have ended slavery peacefully short of a war? Would it have been materially shorter then a successful Confederacy?

Assuming at some point the efforts to end the spread of slavery in territories was successfull......how long to there would be a 2/3rds majority willing to end slavery? Assuming a peaceful end would be compensated, would the cost alone have slowed the movement for abolition?
