They wanted them counted because the House of Representative is based on the population for a particular state, more people, more representatives. If the slaves were counted, that'd give the south more representatives.

Each state is represented in the House of Representatives based upon the amount of congressional districts in the state. The number of congressional districts is based upon the population of the state. That is why NY and Calif. have the highest number of congressmen in the house. These are the two most populous states.
