The only new law was the Fugitive Slave Act.
It was not 'given to the Southern states'. It was enforced in every state of the Union. But it was a gesture of appeasement to the Southern states, in order to keep them onside at a time when it was getting harder to create new slave-states.

The condition was that there should be no more new slave-states North of the parallel that marked Missouri's Southern border.

In the middle of the 19th century, the US was a divided nation on the issue of slavery. In 1850, a compromise between the North and the South was called the Missouri Compromise of 1850.
