4 little episode marked the last appearance at
Pesth Of Herr Theodore Wachtel, who has been
filling short engagement there. The part was
that Of Lionel, in Flotow's opera Of "Martha. !"
In the duet Of the second act. Herr Wachte1
made mistake, and began with the second
verse instead Of the first. This, Of
course, threw the orchestra into a
state OF confusion worse confounded. Fortu-
nately, Herr Wachtel took the only Sensible
course open to him; he left off singing, but, at
the same time gave the audience to understand,
by an unmistakable shake Of the head, that it
was the orchestra who Was to blame. At the
fall of the curtain, however, when the conductor
and the leading members Of the orchestra had
rushed on the stage to demand satisfaction for
the unmerited aspersion cast on them, Herr
Wachtel changed his tone entirely, and eat
humble pie to the very fullest extent. He made
3 most ample apology, and said that such an &C.
cident had never happened to him before, since
he had been on the estage. Next day he broke off
