Final answer:

President Abraham Lincoln's deal for the Confederate states to return to the Union and receive compensation for emancipation of their slaves was not accepted by any states.

Step-by-step explanation:

President Abraham Lincoln presented an ultimatum to the Confederates on September 22, 1862, giving them until January 1, 1863, to rejoin the Union. If they did, slavery would be gradually abolished and compensated emancipation would be provided in exchange for returning to the Union. However, the offer was not accepted by any Confederate states.
