Henry Clay
Missouri
In 1850, the United States was a large country, full of contrasts. New England and the Middle Atlantic states were the centers of finance, trade, shipping and manufacturing. Their products included lumber, machinery and textiles. Southern states had many farms that used slave labor to grow tobacco, sugar and cotton. The Middle Western states also had farms, but they were worked by free men. In 1819, Missouri asked to become a state. Northerners were against this because 10,000 slaves lived there. Because the constitution allowed each new state to elect two senators, new states could change the political balance between "free" and "slave" states. Congressman Henry Clay suggested a way to make the North and South happy. Missouri would become a state with slaves. Maine would become a state without slaves. The Missouri compromise was accepted.
