Did any historic things happen during Zachary Taylor's presidency?

Taylor was not in office for very long and nothing earth-shaking happened. The US made a treaty with Britain to keep neutral any canal built across Central America. The was a conflict of interest scandal involving Secretary of War Crawford. Taylor made it clear that he was much opposed to what became known as the Compromise of 1850.
When he died it passed and led to a fiasco in Kansas, so maybe the most historic thing Taylor did was to leave office prematurely and open the way for this compromise.
