The Crittenden Compromise was mainly about creating an unamendable amendment to the Constitution allowing slavery below the latitude 36 -30. It also stipulated that all prior political party affiliations be changed to the Union Party. The idea was to work out some sort of compromise to prevent the session of the South.
Sectional compromise did not work in 1860 for many reasons. One of them being that this was the time during the great potato famine in Ireland, so the refugees cascaded into the northern states in the 1850's. Therefore, the north had no room. Once the Europeans were in America, they had no desire for the practice of slavery, and the north states were not convinced to compromise over slavery. The new compromise was put out for grabs, but Lincoln rejected it because he would not allow the extension of slavery. Also, the Crittenden Compromise would allow new slave states, but Lincoln would not accept this, either.

No. It was a compromise in the Congress to work out problems between some states as to which side they were on. People could not decide on their own to own slaves. Some people in the South didn't want slavery.
When a political deadlock is reached, both parties are forced to find common ground to work out a compromise. Working out a compromise sounds much more successful to me than diggin in on positions and getting nowhere.
After Rome sold the inhabitants of Carthage into slavery, and destroyed the city, in order to ensure that it would never be a problem again, there wasn't much compromise available.
The president must work with opposing political parties constantly.
When two parties work together to come up with a solution it is called a bipartisan compromise. bipartisanship

The Compromise of 1850 undid much of the work of the Missouri Compromise made a few years prior. Unfortunately, the Compromise of 1850 did not alleviate the tensions of the slave debate, and the Civil War broke out just ten years later.
Yes. By slavery. But not in Canada
