In Jamaica, the Executive Government and the Legislature are again

at issue. The Assembly has withheld the pay of the troops, and Sir John Keane has enforced the double duties and prorogued the Assembly.

Mr. Hibbert has resigned his ap- pointment as agent for the colony, to the regret of all parties.
