about three years old, arrived at this port Fri
day last, in the brig Northumberland, from AIM
CD She is very docile and intelligent, and at
tracts much attention. As to her accomplish.
ments she is something of painter, for lew
days ago she possessed herself Of Il paint pot and
brush, and mounting the rigging proceeded 10
display her a-tistical powers on canvass, leaving
specimen of her skill, which is still visible, on
one Of the sails. She can also draw well, as is
evident from the crowds who flock 10 see her.
She can smoke a cigar with all the grace of
Spanish lady, and tender it, from her own mouth,
to any gentleman standing near, as politely as
though veIscd in all the accomplishments OF the
French school. She is also something of
housewife, and a disciple of the manual labor
school, for she can help herself,o coffee and draw
water from pump as readily as any of the biped
race without tails. In short, We dare not relate
all her wonderful qualities lest they be deemed in
credible. Salem Register.
