The treaty of Zurich, signed on NO
vember 10, 1859, virtually created the
modern kingdom of Italy. 1t put an
end to the war which SARDINIA anu
France had been waging against Aus
tria, and so increased the size ana
power of the kingdom of Sardinia that
after further annexations the year foi-
lowing. Victor Emanuel proclaimed
himself king of Italy and the Kingdom
Of Sardinia vanished.
It was a curious piece of nomencla-
ture that of the "kingdOm of Sar-
DINA :" for while the house OF savoy
took its kingly title from an unconsio-
cred island. it's domains lay In north
ern Italy and also comprised what Is
now the southeastern corner or
France. Under the guidance OF Car
vour the king of Sardinia had become
the head and front of the nationalistic
movement which was stirring all Italy
when he threw his troops into the
Crimean war and gained an ally In
France. When the Peace of Paris
closed that war Carvour boldly told the
assembled delegates that Italy would
never cease to be a n, bed Of unrest
and revolution until the Austrians
were expelled. With this idea he had
filed the ear and mind of Napoleon
III. who timorously hesitated, posing
as the friend and champion of Sardin-
ian aspirations but failing to act. AT
last, on July 20, 1858, Carvour and the
emneror had secret meeting at the
vater-place of Plombieres, in the
Vosges. It was agreed that at the
first favorable opportunity France
should attack Austria with an army or
2OO. 900, and Sardinia with an army of
half that number. Peace was not to be
made until Austria was expelled from
italy. If necessary, the allies would
dictate terms in Vienna itself. Lom-
hardy, Venetia and the Italian duchies
and that part Of Italy known as the
81 ,pgations" were, with the kingdom or
Sardinia, to form q kingdom Of North
ern Italy. A kingdom of Central Italy
was to be formed out Of Umbria and
tuscany.
Certain to Defeat Austria.
The kingdom of Naples, the southern
part of Italy, was to be left to itself,
as a popular revolution was certain
to overthrow the Austrian power there.
The pope was to keep Rome and the
district about it under a garrison of
| French troons. In return, the emperor
demanded the cession to France of
Nice and the duchy of Savoy. This
cession would be the first breach in
those treaties of 1915, by which the
demarcations Of European nations had
been settled after the Napoleonic wars,
