Society.—The third

lectur* of the aeries was delivered on Monday evening last, by Hon. H. W. Thompson, on the all absorbing and interesting subject of Hungary and Kossuth/' The subject was treated with that mnftterly ability for winch the lecturer is distinguished, and an exceedingly large and respectable audience was in attendance upon the occasion. The address, although upwards of two hours in length, wis listened to with the most profound attention and elicited repeated bursts of epplau§e W«t were pleased with the broad, bold, and patriotic aland, which the honorable gentleman took in regard to Kossuth and his mission to America Unless this lecture should be submitted for publi cation we will refer to it again. ... .t

Fusnvmwi.—The holy days have pas

asd quietly, but rather pleasantly by. There was ,quite a sucetision of Festivities during the greater part of last week which we neglected to notice.— The Christian Aid Society connected with St. Ste phan'a Cburoh, held two magnifloent festivals on ,Tu«*day and Wednesday evenings before ChristgBf*, both of whioh were well attended and the HlUt prooeeda of the two evenings amounted, we •re informed, to upwards of 1250. The "Social Uttlott" connected with the Uaiveraalist Church, fcf held a brilliant cotillion on Christmas night. Near p" two hundred were in attendance upon the oseasion.

The New Year's Ball, last night, was one of the ph tnoct brilliant affairs of the season. A large and fashiouablo company participated in the exercises

Ike evening,

''And at) wont merry aa aparrisge bell." The thanks of the company present are most otrtainly due the polite and gentlemanly Managers for their, efficient attention to the arrangements of

Maoazise,'—The January number

for 1852 of this highly popular periodical has been received. In the present number Graham has out done himself. It contains nearly twice the usual quantity of reading may^r which bas formerly ap peered within its pages. The articles are from the pens of some of the most distinguished male and female writers of America, and the illustrations are truly superb. TTiat Graham's Magazine for 1852 will be all that the publisher promises, we have no doubt, as he has' hitherto so fully maintained his promises and if so its present price 83 00 will hardly be 26 per cent of its real value.

O^T The State Journal of the 28th inst., says that the Legislature did not hold a session yesterday, there not having been a quorum present in either branch. Most of the members are at their homes, spending the holidays. Sixty-seven members constitute a quorum in the House but on meeting in the morning, only forty-three answered to their names. We doubt whether there will be a quorum until after New Year's day. Very little business will be done this week. i*&

i-ji -OCT Judge DouotASSj of lllinoi», is a favorite ^ndidate for President among the Democracy of many portions of the Union. There is a great deal of romance, mixed with the stern realitiea of his history, which together, give him a high degree of popularity, lie is a gentleman whom the'Iili* nois "gal" aaid had but "a slim chance of legs."

Notwithstanding this draw back, we think he could outrun any whig in America. If the Democratic National Convention put him on the track, he'U "go through by dayi'ght."

No business of consequence has been transacted by the Legislature for a week past. The adjournment over Christmas was a reasonable movement, for nothing of moment is ever done in legislation during the holy days. It will be a great improve* ment to change the lime for the sessions to commence until aftef the first of January.

There has been a good deal of backwardness manifested in relation to t|e organization of a system of general banking. Mr. Hudson to-day introduced a resolution, providing for a bill to establish hanking on the basis of slock securities, reciting at considerable length the provisions to be embraced. Quiie an iniereating dobate fining tip, in relation to the details of the system, in which Messrs Spencer, Hudson, Owen, Ring and others participated when the resolution was laid on the table and ordered to he printed.
