_Foreign Affairs._
We think it a proper introduction to the history of the year newly
begun, to give our readers a transient view of the situation of Affairs
at the conclusion of the last; and as we find this ready done to our
hands in the _Post-Boy_, _Dec. 31._ we shall make no apology for
epitomizing his essay upon that Subject.
The Clouds in which the fate of _Europe_ was obscur’d at the close of
the Year 1729, are not yet dissipated, notwithstanding the efforts of
politicians, the number of Negotiations, and the union of four of the
most formidable powers in _Europe_, by the Treaty of _Seville_.
