First Amendment text: Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

In other words... The First Amendment is designed to protect basic freedoms. It protects freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of the press, freedom to assemble, and freedom to petition the government. It keeps the government from creating an official religion. "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances." This means that Congress is not allowed to establish an official state religion, or infringe upon citizens' freedom of religion, speech, press, petition, or peaceful assembly.

What compromise was proposed by Senator John J Crittenden during the civil war?

There were no Compromises during the civil war, for obvious reasons. The Crittenden Compromise was the last attempt to avert war, and it was presented to the newly-inaugurated Lincoln at the beginning of 1861. Its attempt to avoid a war was in the form of an unamendable amendant to the US Constitution. It proposed restoring the Missouri line, with all territories south of that parallel voting whether to become slave-states or free soil. It also proposed stronger enforcement of the Fugitive Slave Law, with compensation for owners of slaves who got away. Lincoln rejected it because it would have allowed some extension of slavery.
