How was the compromise of 1850 more a triumph of sectional self-interest than a true national compromise?
By definition, a compromise is a resolution of conflicting sectional interests. 'National compromise' doesn't mean too much. The Compromise of 1850 was a rather desperate attempt to replace the successful Missouri Compromise, which had kept the peace for thirty years, but was rendered inoperable by the admission of California - too big to fit the geographical terms of the compromise. In the new deal, California would be admitted as free soil - a major concession by the South, who then needed to be appeased by the Fugitive Slave Act, allowing official slave-catchers to hunt down runaways. This did not keep the peace, as we know.

This infuriated the Abolitionists and caused Harriet Beecher Stowe to write 'Uncle Tom's Cabin', which drew the attention of millions of Northerners who had not been especially interested in the slave debate.
