:The Compromise of 1850 was a very important piece of legislation.  It was passed as a series of separate laws.  It was designed to reconcile some of the differences between the anti-slavery and pro-slavery movements.  It enacted strong fugitive slave laws and guaranteed the enforcement of these laws.  It enabled the South to bring slaves into the territories.  Slavery would still be permitted in the District of Columbia, but ''slave trade'' was no longer permitted.  California was admitted as a free state.  The U.S. gave Texas ten million dollars to pay off its debts provided Texas agreed to give up its claims to New Mexico and some other territory that eventually became other states.  (Mark D.)
