Excerpt from The Annual Register, or a View of the History, Politics, and Literature: For the Year 1778

Although it be a year which has not allorded thofe great and fignal actions which throw a fafcinating fple'fid'our Over the face of Hifiory,' it has abounded with bufinefs of leis lufire, but of the mofl important nature, in a degree, perhaps, unequalled in our annals. Our attention to domeilic matters, has not, however, pre vented oqayinga due regard to that war, which was commenced with fuchi tre 'mendons appearances in, Germany, and (0 fpeedily and happily concluded.. The ex~ traordinary bulk of our. Hiltory, notwith fianding. Our utmoft endeavours (both for our own fake, and that of our Readers) to compreis., it within more moderate limits, will, we hope, afl'ord an unqueilionable tefiirnony to the Public, that neither our zeal, nor our indufiry, are flackened by their favour.
