[PAR] [TLE] Compromise of 1790 [SEP] The Compromise of 1790 was a compromise between Alexander Hamilton on the one hand and Thomas Jefferson and James Madison whereby Hamilton won the decision for the national government to take over and pay the state debts, while Jefferson and Madison obtained the national capital (District of Columbia) for the South.  The compromise resolved the deadlock in Congress.  Southerners were blocking the assumption of state debts by the treasury, thereby destroying the Hamiltonian program for building a fiscally strong nation state.  Northerners rejected the proposal, much desired by Virginians, to locate the permanent national capital on the Virginia-Maryland border.  The compromise made possible the passage of the Residence and Funding (Assumption) Acts in July and August 1790.  Historian Jacob Cooke says it is, "generally regarded as one of the most important bargains in American history, ranking just below the better known Missouri Compromise and the Compromise of 1850." [PAR] [TLE] Missouri Compromise [SEP] The Missouri Compromise is the title generally attached to the legislation passed by the 16th United States Congress on May 8, 1820.  The measures provided for the admission of Maine as a state along with Missouri as a slave state, thus maintaining the balance of power between North and South.  As part of the compromise, slavery was prohibited North of the 36°30′ parallel, excluding Missouri.  President James Monroe signed the legislation on April 6, 1820.
