From the Jamaica Papers.—The most perfect unanimity
at present happily exists between the several branches of the
Legislature. It is really most gratifying to perceive tne
perfect peace and quiet which has taken place of differences
and disputes in our island, No one who wishes well to
the country can avoid congratulating himself upon the cir-
cumstance, and praying that it may contihtm and in-
increase to the benefit of all.
