So the “leaks” are not yet slopped. “ * Washington, Jan. 2. The Message of the Governor of Ma- ylaud treats the subject which now agi tates the country, in a manner that will cheer the South, and impress Congress with a belief that a crisis has arrived in which that subject must be settled. All doubts as to the cr are now removed. From of the general sentiment of the Assem bly, they are, I am certain, prepared to echo the sentiments of Gov. Thomas It is now understood hei northern members are in favor of letting the subject alone. They propose toadmil California, and to leave New Mexico and Deseret to shift for themselves, as they best can. . Numerous propositions of compromise are to be offered. President Taylor has proposed to admit California, and to await the ac tion of New Mexico. He advises against the introduction of topics of* a sectional character, such as the Wilmot Proviso; for though he does not name it, he evi dently points to it. That it is his deter mination to veto it, should it pass, there can scarcely be a doubt. The northern men, with whom I have conferred to-day, s,ny that they wish to <l_.lieterrilori.il ques.ion, and ll.nl S>om G r iffin if territorial governments for New Mexi- I , n 'p >and Deseret should be proposed, they j . v t. n ill be obliged to vote for the Proviso This being the case there is little hopi that territorial governments will bo or ganized, without the inhibition of slave place withip .the.'corporate liul city.
