Base on the question and in my further research, I would say that the answer would be that b<span>oth sides wanted to gain something. Due to the Compromise. The slave trade was abolished in the District of Columbia. The Territory of New Mexico and the Territory of Utah were organized under the rule of popular sovereignty. And the Fugitive Slave Act was passed.</span>
the abolitionists were against slavery and so they disliked the fugitive slave law because it made them return runaway slaves to their owners.
So we know when certain things in history took place. Its hard somtimes to remember/memorize all the dates, but timelines do help.
Hope this helps :D
