The First Battle of Bull Run (Manassas), July 21, 1861, was a Confederate victory that shattered Northern hopes of a short war. Its effect on the North was shock and panic—political pressure and criticism of Union leadership—followed by a decision to mobilize far larger, longer-term forces, reorganize and train the army (bringing in McClellan), and prepare for a protracted conflict.
