Missouri Compromise 1820, about the new territories brought in by the Louisiana Purchase - drawing a line in the sand, North of which slavery would be illegal.
Compromise of 1850, about the new territories brought in by the victory over Mexico - a scrambled deal, mostly favouring the North and making new slave-states harder to create, so they passed the Fugitive Slave Act to appease the South by cracking down on runaways.
There was also a last-minute compromise (Crittenden), early in 1861, to try and avert war. But Lincoln rejected it because it could have allowed new slave-states.
