"I do not think that there is any other quality so essential to success of any kind as the quality of perseverance. It overcomes almost everything, even nature."
First of all, you interned at Jefferies. Nobody summers at JPM, receives a FT offer, and then shops it for Jefferies. Secondly, you're drinking the Jefferies kool-aid. Even if it's "growing so fast" (debatable - depends on how you define "so fast"), best case scenario, it one day is at JPM's level. More likely, it'll never be as strong. And in terms of branding, exit opps and, if you're looking to stick around long-term, overall culture (internal mobility, promotion opps, etc), JPM wins hands down.
I would recommend JPM, like everyone else before me. The bank has participated in many marquee deals, and its size allows it to work on unique deals. In addition, if you're not sure what you want to do next, JPM has many divisions that do very interesting work, and many of them you won't hear about until you start working in finance.
If you did your summer internship at Jefferies, I can understand your hesitation to leave for another firm. If you like your team and thought there are many opportunities to do interesting work, you might be tempted to stay. Jefferies does have a decent reputation on the street now, but they will always be known for being very scrappy (for better or for worse).
Talk to a few alumni or friends that you trust too. Hearing it from people you know will help you make the right choice.

Not sure how this is a serious question, barring a real issue you have not mentioned (e.g., the JPM offer is for Kiev).

First of all, congratulations on both offers.
