The Townshend Acts started in 1767 in Great Britain by their Parliament. The Parliament had passed several acts relating to the British colonies in North America.
Because a newer leader, named Lord North, saw that the British weren't gaining any money from the acts. so early in 1770, he convinced the Parliament to repeal all of the Townshend Acts, except for one, the tax on tea.
The Fugitive Slave Act forced many people to consider the pros and cons of slavery in the United States. The effect of the Fugitive Slave Act was the freeing of slaves.
As a means to have the Missouri Compromise of 1850, the Fugitive Slave law was passed by Congress. It called for the return of all escaped slaves to the North be returned to their owners. Rewards and bounties were offered as part of the law to encourage compliance in the North.
Northern Abolitionists did not react favorably to the Fugitive Slave Act. This is because it supported the cause they were against.

The Fugitive Slave Acts were passed by the U.S. Congress in 1793 and 1850. The first act was drafted by Congress, while the second act was amended from the original law.
This response is inaccurate. The Fugitive Slave Acts were laws that allowed for the capture and return of escaped slaves, denying them the right to a trial by jury and often leading to their unjust re-enslavement. These acts were highly controversial and contributed to growing tensions between the North and South prior to the Civil War.
The Fugitive Slave Acts aimed at returning the escaped slaves to their owners/masters by law. These acts caused big disagreement between the South and the North because the 'free states' in the north did not enforce this law and were reluctant to force the slaves back, not to mention to let the masters' men search for the fugitives in the north. The first act was made in 1793, the second was made in 1850 (focused on the trafic through the Underground Railroad).
The North's response to the Fugitive Slave Act included increased resistance to the enforcement of the law, acts of civil disobedience, and the formation of organized networks to help escaped slaves reach freedom in Canada. There were also instances of violent clashes between abolitionists and those trying to capture escaped slaves.
Some northern states used personal liberty laws to nullify the figitive slave Act, written to help the south.
pre-Civil War laws passed by Northern state governments to counteract the provisions of the Fugitive Slave Acts and to protect escaped slaves and free blacks settled in the North, by giving them the right to a jury trial.

Under the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850, a free white person in the North could be sentenced to imprisonment and fined for helping or aiding escaped slaves. This law mandated that citizens assist in the capture of runaway slaves and imposed severe penalties on anyone who obstructed or hindered that process. It effectively criminalized acts of abolitionism and highlighted the tensions between Northern and Southern states regarding slavery.
