The Packet, which entered our River on Sunday last, will sail on Sunday next. She brought us London Papers to the 14th ult. and we are happy to find that most of the statements in our last number, on the authority of the Swaggerer brig of war, are as well supported as we could expect, in papers only one day later. . . .

The King, we are happy to find, is once more recovering.

THE ASS in the LION'S SKIN.

An Ass, who wore a Lion's hide,
Spread fear and terror far and wide;
The animals all frighted fly,
And e'en the Fox himself was shy:
But when the foolish creature bray'd,
His compliment the Fox thus paid: -
"Dread Sir! I hardly should presume
"So near your majesty to come,
"Did not your gracious voice declare
"What sort of Lion, sir, you are!"

Whene'er their speech their pride belies,
Pedants and Puppies we despise.
