Was John Adams and Aaron burr from the same political party?

No, Aaron Burr was the "running mate" of Thomas Jefferson in the presidential elections of 1796 and 1800 (the election process did not actually support the concept of the vice presidential running mate until the 1804 ratification of the 12th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution).

What did John Adams mean when he said title page to a great tragic volume?

John Q. Adams was alluding to the fact that the Missouri Compromise, far from providing a comprehensive solution to the ongoing debate about slavery in America, merely signaled the beginning of a long and tragic struggle towards what he believed would be it's ultimate extinction. The Missouri Compromise essentially divided the counrty in half, everything North of a certain latitude being free, and south slave. This begs the question, why is the word "tragic" used to describe something that would seem to us to be a good thing : that is the end of slavery. Here Adams recognized the fact that lives would be lost, homes and families torn apart, and an entire way of life (the agricultural South) stripped of it's life force. LONG STORY SHORT: By the time Adams said this he had positioned himself adamantly against slavery (Amistad) but knew the end of it would mean terrible things for many. The Missouri Compromise, then, was just the beginning.
