They didn't fire on Ft Sumter to protect slavery. The majority of the northern politicians were moderates that wanted to see the spread of slavery stemmed, but were willing to accept a 50/50 split on new states. The handful of abolitionists didn't have the power to put an end to slavery in all the new states, let alone the south.
