What was the position of US President Zachary Taylor on the compromises that Henry Clay was trying to reach regarding California?

Zachary Taylor was a hero in the Mexican War, a Virginian, a Whig and a slave owner. His stance on the 1850 California admission was a surprise to many. Henry Clay, the mind behind, the 1820 Missouri Compromise took on the task of forging another compromise in 1850. Clay was also Abraham Lincoln's "mentor" and both were Whigs.The work in 1850 by Henry Clay faced an uphill battle. President Zachary Taylor made it clear that he expected the Congress to admit both California and New Mexico as free states. He also said he would not sign a fugitive slave law. He also made it known that he would not entertain any monetary or border claims from Texas. Taylor went a step further, if Texas resisted New Mexico's claims on the border between them, he vowed to send in troops to settle the situation and lead them himself to force Texan compliance. Taylor's stance, being a slave owner, was unexpected. Sadly Taylor died in the Summer of 1850. Looking back, one can see that Zachary Taylor was a true patriot.
