29D clearest waters. The dingy yellow and the deep sallow green, are very inferior to the clear coppery brown-backed eel, and even to the bronze-coloured. Welled vessels often bring over a cargo of 15,000 to 20,000 eels from Holland. The consumption of eels in Great Britain is very large, amounting to 4,000 or 5,000 tons a year. We get the largest portion from Holland, but the best come from Ireland. One thousand packages of eels were sold in Dublin in 1870, worth 30s. a package. The eel is the... oiliest of all fishes, but is correspondingly deficient in nitrogenous matter, containing only 10 per cent, of the latter, but having at least 14 per cent, of fat. The Jews were prohibited from eating eels by the Levitical law, which forbade the eating of "whatsoever had no fins nor scales in the water," although in other fish-eating countries they form a favourite dish. Espe- cially is this the case in England, where the demand for eels always exceeds the supply, and where no fewer than ten millions of them are annually brought to Billingsgate for the supply of the Metropolitan market.
