John Bull was at one period specially twitted with having an "insular prejudice against many things considerad delectable by his neighbours." How is it, inquires' one of them," that though great portions of the globe have testified to the excellence and wholesomes ness of many meats, the British people, will not be persuaded to eat them, except in the greatest extremity? They are too nice by half." And yet we are assured that people only learn- ed to eat snails through stress of famine; so that there does not seem to be very much in the argument.
