Southerners wanted Congress to pass laws that would require northern states to return enslaved people who had fled to the North. They sought the enforcement of a strong Fugitive Slave Law, which would mandate the return of escaped enslaved individuals to their owners. This demand was rooted in the belief that enslaved people were property, and their escape was a violation of southern property rights. The debate over this issue heightened tensions between the North and South leading up to the Civil War.
It is because more and more people in the North where helping slaves escape to the North. Making it easier for slaves to run away... Once in the North many slaves would begin a new life.... and the Southern states had no power to remove a former slaves because there was no laws to protect the property rights of Southern Slave owners...
The Kansas Nebraska Act did help keep the balance involving sectionalism and the North and South, but only by helping the North. Many Southerners were actually quite agrivated at the though of Congress standing up for the North, and this was when the first whispers of Sectionalism came into play.
Southerners were deeply concerned about John Brown's raid on Harpers Ferry in 1859 because it represented a direct threat to the institution of slavery and their way of life. They feared that his actions would inspire enslaved people to rebel and incite violence across the South. Additionally, Brown's raid heightened tensions between the North and South, as many in the South viewed it as a sign of Northern aggression and a lack of respect for Southern rights. This fear contributed to the growing divide that ultimately led to the Civil War.
Some states wanted to count enslaved people as part of their population to increase their representation in Congress and gain more political power. The three-fifths compromise allowed states to count enslaved individuals as three-fifths of a person for legislative representation purposes, which benefited slaveholding states by boosting their influence in the federal government. This arrangement highlighted the conflicting interests between states in the North and South regarding slavery and representation.
