Yes, the North eventually gave up its demands for an end to slavery in all territories as part of the Compromise of 1850. This compromise allowed for the possibility of slavery to expand into certain territories while admitting California as a free state. The decision reflected a desire to maintain national unity and avoid conflict over the contentious issue of slavery in the years leading up to the Civil War.

slavery and the industry
The major issue between the North and the South in the 1850s was slavery, particularly its expansion into newly acquired territories and states. The North, increasingly industrialized and anti-slavery, opposed the spread of slavery, while the agrarian South relied on slave labor for its economy and sought to protect and expand the institution. This tension led to significant political conflict, including the Kansas-Nebraska Act and the Dred Scott decision, ultimately contributing to the outbreak of the Civil War.
trick question it united them
The issue of slavery split the party. "Conscience Whigs" in the North favored the abolition of slavery and halting the institution's spread into new territories. The "Cotton Whigs" in the South took the opposite viewpoints

The South looked at slavery as an economic issue. The North viewed slavery as a moral issue. In the North, slavery was proving to be unprofitable in the North and was dying out by the end of the American Revolution, but in the South white Southerners were increasingly more defensive of slavery.

It prohibited slavery North of a certain parallel, but only in the territories brought in under the Louisiana Purchase. When the new Mexican territories came in, they needed a new compromise. That one did not hold.
The issue that the North and South fought over was called the Wilmot Proviso. It was basically a law of slavery: the North and South were fighting over slavery. The North were anti-slavery and the South were pro-slavery

The North had opposed the extension of slavery because they didn't want the 'inhumane' segregation to spread the the newer joining territories/states. And they couldn't have yet attempted to abolish slavery all together at that point because the segregation force was too large and powerful. So they hoped to only turn new territories/states anti-slavery. Slavery was one issue, equal rights was another issue. So to say that Northerners did not like segregation is not true. Segregation existed in the North and the USA as a whole for decades after the Civil War.
The Missouri Compromise primarily involved the regulation of slavery in the western territories. It prohibited slavery in the former Louisiana Territory north of the parallel 36°30′ north except within the boundaries of the proposed state of Missouri.

There was this tension, because the territories claimed by the South became slave territories and the territories claimed by the North became free territories. The North wanted no slavery and the South wanted slaves. So, the North and south raced to get as much land as possible to cause the other direction ( N. or S. ) to submit into slavery or no slavery
