It's because people there usually worked in factories and industries so they didn't need slaves to work for them.While the people in the south had farms and needed slaves to do the labor.

Northerners believed that the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 was unfair because they opposed the institution of slavery and saw it as a violation of basic human rights. They felt that the law required them to participate in the enforcement and return of escaped slaves, even if they did not agree with slavery or believe in its legality. Additionally, the act denied alleged fugitive slaves the right to a trial by jury, which was seen as a violation of the principles of due process.
