The issues of whether the new territories should be free or slave states were a big problem. The balance between free and slave states needed to be kept in check, which was hard to do when new states were annexed. This issue led to the Civil War.
Previous acquisitions, such as Louisiana and Florida were peaceful purchases of land. The Mexican Cession occurred through the spoils of war: the Mexican-American War (1846-1848) resulted in the undisputed acquisition of the whole states of California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas, as well as parts of Wyoming, Colorado, Oklahoma and Kansas.
New Jersey was a colony and not a territory.

During the period of Manifest Destiny, several states were added to the United States, including Texas (1845), Oregon (1846), and California (1850). Additionally, the territories acquired from the Mexican-American War, such as New Mexico and Arizona, eventually led to their admission as states. The expansionist ideology of Manifest Destiny played a significant role in these territorial acquisitions.

The US often gained more land when it took up new acquisitions. This would also lead to more natural resources to use.
The territorial acquisitions of the U.S., particularly through events like the Louisiana Purchase, the annexation of Texas, and the Mexican-American War, intensified the debate over the expansion of slavery into new territories. As new lands were acquired, the question of whether these areas would allow slavery became a contentious issue, leading to conflicts such as "Bleeding Kansas." This growing sectional divide over slavery's expansion ultimately contributed to the rising tensions between the North and South, setting the stage for the Civil War. The Missouri Compromise and the Compromise of 1850 were attempts to address these issues, but they ultimately proved insufficient to prevent conflict.
Negatives: there will likely be property damage and people may be injured or killed. Positive: Old trees may be cleared out to make way for new growth.
Southern slave states saw that the new western US territories might not be slave states. If so, then in the US Congress, they would soon be under represented. Without new territories to be settled, then the South had a chance to remain in equal parity in the US Congress.
