The Missouri Compromise was the laws that enacted in 1820 to maintain the balance of power between slave and free states. Henry Clay wanted Missouri (state) to be a free or a slave state but the Southerns claimed that the Constitution did not give the Congress the power to ban slavery. THey would worry that if free states formed a majority in Congress, they would ban slavery altogether. Meanwhile, Maine wanted to be part of the statehood, so Henry Clay suggested that Missouri could be a slave state and Maine as a free state but the Congress passes the Missouri Compromise so Maine became a free state and Missouri as a slave state (I think?). Among these tensions, the Mason Dixon line formed the Maryland and PA border. The line came to be used for the division between the slave states and free states, as well as the division between the north and south.(I hoped I answered your question!!)

The staggering of senatorial elections was intended to insulate senators from shifts in:

Staggering senate elections have the benefits of protecting senators and senate from staggering public sentiment

Public sentiment is dynamic and not static. This means it keeps on changing from time to time. To insulate the senate, senators are elected for a term of six years, and every two years, a third of the senators are reelected. this means there is continuity of policies in the house, and senators remain committed to nationalistic agendas.
