DRlNArIc FUND BEHEPIT.-Last night was most
uponestionably the most disagreeabe night Of the
Winter But notwithstanding this untoward stare OF
the weather the Academy Of Music was crammed 10
OVERLOOKING by appreciative audience, VINO assem-
bed TO witness the performance for the benefit OF the
American Dramatic Fund. Long before the honf ap-
ponted for the commencement of the entertainment,
every seat from Hoor TO dome, commanding view OF
the Stage. was occupied The performance for the
evening was Macbeth" with Mr. Edwin Booth az
" Macbeth" and Miss Charlotte Cushman as LADY
Macbeth"
Both of these ar.ists have gained fair portion OF
their laurels by the admirable manner In which they
have heretofore sustained the parts mentioned, and
their rendering of them last evening will IN no way
dotract from the reputation Of either This il the first
limo New. York audience have ever had an opp0rtu-
nity of seeing Mr. Booth and Miss Cushman together
in the same piece ah ough other cities have been more
fortunate. The enthusiastic manner in which they
were greeted last night, in defiance Of the weather,
would seem 10 indicate that enterprising manager
might reap profitable harvest BY engaging them for
brief season.
Madame Anna Bishop sustained the part of one of
the singing witches, and contributed much the sue
cess of the performance The other characters were
ably by volunteers from the various theaters
Of the city, among whom Mefsrs Charles Fisher,
4. W. Fenno Harry Pesrson Geo. Rea Mis- Reeves,
the Misses France, and others. The entire perform
ance was complete success and al its conclusion tho
leading performers called before the curtain and
treated 70 torrent of applause, accompanied by the
waving Of masculine bats and feminine handkerchieis.
The performance was concluded by Madame Anna
Bishop singing The Flag Of Onr Union which "ss
loudly eneored.
The benefit was in every respect the mos snccessu
one ever given by the Directors OF the Fund The M
ceipts amounted ~ about s. 100, nearly all of which s
clear profit the services Of all the performers being
gratuitous and no rent being charged for the building
This s nearly 900 in excess Of the largest snn re-
ceyed from any previous benefit. Tie Directors viii
probably see from this result that the public are always
willing to pa,ronize literally really good performance,
while they will no. pay anything for hodge'podee
performance, as too many Of their benefits have been
heretofore.

WILSON'S ZoUAvEs.-A correspondent to
the New York Times, gives the following des-
cription of the arrival and landing of Wilson's
Zouaves, at Fort Pickens
Twenty four hours ago, our reinforcements
were comfortably encamped on Rosas You
probably know more about them than do
" Billy Wilson's regiment got inside the lights
on the oath, and is now on Rosas Island. As
| write, there is a battalion drill going on, and
it looks queer enough to one who has been
thirty years regular. What the new comers
lack in elegance, however, they make up in
muscle. Their advent here was grand affair,
and was as noisy as you can imagine. Cheers
do not describe the extraordinary roars with
which every one of our vessels, and subse-
quently ourselves, were greeted. [ sincerely
doubt whether so many "tigers" were ever
before heard in Florida. Is it any wonder,
then, that the regiment should be the lions of
the hour? The debarkation was something
whose like never hope to look upon again
" Three cheers for Harry Brown - tiger" "
" Three cheers for Billy Wison-tiger -
I" Three cheers for Old Abe-tiger" Three
cheers for Slemmer-tiger "Three groans
for Old Bragg tiger" "Three groans for
jeff Davis-tiger" Say, old bandy-egs,
fling down that fowliug-pece." " Hold on,
there, squinteye, thems my groceries" Pull
that id ngger overheard )" and a thousand
other indescrioabe phrases greeted my ear
from the crowd as the Vanderbilt hauled near
to let them land.
