If you thought the Insurrection was about slavery, may I suggest getting off the google machine and readingThe Real Lincoln by Thomas DiLorenzo. Lincoln being a follower of Hamilton and Clay wanted a strong central government based on the British "Mercantilism" model.
The reason Jefferson Davis wasn't tried for treason was because according to the Constitution States could secede and if the courts found in Davis' favor that could have been a problem.
I don't know why that would have worried the Republicans since Lincoln suspended Habeas Corpus and ignored the Constitution
