James Madison does not match with the Missouri Compromise.
In 1850, the situation that brought about the first Missouri Compromise of 1820 was now more complicated as new US States and territories were part of the expansion of the United States. Several notable US politicians were involved in the Missouri Compromise of 1850, namely Whig Party Senator Daniel Webster from Massachusetts and to the degree his health would permit, John Calhoun and Henry Clay all had a part in promoting the 1850 Compromise.
The Missouri Compromise was proposed by Senator Henry Clay in 1820, not as part of the Compromise of 1850. The Compromise of 1850 was also led by Clay, alongside other prominent figures such as Daniel Webster and John C. Calhoun. The Missouri Compromise aimed to address the balance of slave and free states, while the Compromise of 1850 dealt with issues arising from the Mexican-American War and included measures like the admission of California as a free state.

The Missouri Compromise was proposed by Clay and Calhoun. It forbade slavery in the former Louisiana Territory north of 36 degrees 30 minutes, except within the boundaries of the proposed state of Missouri. The Compromise was passed into law in 1820 and effectively repealed by the Kansas-Nebraska Act of 1954.
