Yes, it was a rather desperate deal, with concessions to the South to compensate for their agreement to admit California to the Union as free soil.

One of these was the Fugitive Slave Act, which allowed official slave-catchers to hunt down runaways. This provoked the best-selling anti-slavery novel 'Uncle Tom's Cabin', which dramatised the slave debate and caught the attention of millions who had not felt strongly about it until then.
