Origin OF THE WORD "TAE1FF." -
This puzzling name is derived from the
town of Tariifa, at the mouth of the
Straits Of Gibraltar. 1t was the last
stronghold which the Moors disputed
with the Chriitians; and when the for
mer had possession Of both the pillars OF
Hercules, it was here that they levied
contributions on vessels entering the
Mediterranean; hence the generic name.
ANTICIPATED REVOLUTION Cuba
From Spanish letters which have come
under our observation, says the Savan-
nah Republican, we learn that certain
Cubans in this country regard matters
in Cuba as being 10 a state bording ON
revolution. These letters give reason
to believe that the cry OF liberty would
be raised on the 18th of the present
month. 1t may soon be in our power,
adds the Republican, TO give our readers
further particulars.

Mr.. Fillmore, in the course of one of

The most painful night Of his life was
that when, in most trying period Of
the history of this country, he felt that
he was about to be called upon TO dis
charge the duties Of Chief Magistrate of
the nation. When he stood by the
deathbed of the illustrlous Chief whose
spirit, almost without warning, fled to
the God who gava it, he was overwhelm-
ed with the responsibility which he
feared was about to be imposed upon
him."
