Book excerpt: Excerpt from Olla Podrida, Vol. 2 of 3 To one who has visited foreign climes, how very substantial every thing appears in Eng land, from the child's plaything to the Duke of York's column! To use a joiner's phrase, every thing abroad is comparatively scamp work. Talk about the Palais Royale, the Rue Richelieu, and the splendour of the Parisian shops - why, two hundred yards of Regent street, commencing from Howell and James's.
