The French and Indian War in America was formally concluded with the signing of the Treaty of Paris on February 10, 1763.  As the March 1763 issue of Gentleman’s Magazine reports, “The Definitive Treaty of Friendship of Peace between his Britannick Majesty, the Most Christian King, and the King of Spain. Concluded at Paris, the 10th day of February 1763; to which the King of Portugal acceded on the same day.” Five days later, on February 15, 1763, the Treaty of Hubertusburg ended the Seven Years’ War in Europe.  The April issue of Gentleman’s Magazine printed an “Abstract of the Definitive Treaty of Peace between the Empress Queen and the King of Prussia.”
