In this engagement, the Neapolitan poet, Alessandro Poerio, sustained severe wounds from which he died, univer- sally regretted, a few days later. The Austrian throne now changed hands : in December, 1848, Ferdinand I. Abdicated in favour of his nephew, Francis Joseph, a youth of eighteen. Thus Austria found herself struggling in a sea of difficulties ; distracted by petty internal revolutions, she had to face rebellion in Hungary, open hostilities in Venice and the increasing menaces of Piedmo...nt. XI THE WAR OF 1 849 In Piedmont, the parliament and the press, as well as the political immigrants, were in favour of war : all the intrigues of European diplomacy failed to stifle the nation's patriotic aspirations, whilst Charles Albert himself was desirous of resuming the struggle with Austria. The King, after the campaign of 1848, had talked of abdicating the throne, but now, either through some vague hope of ultimate success or the idea that his return to arms would convince the world of the groundlessness of the calumnies levelled at him, he renounced this inten- tion.
