Explanation:

Upon reading this excerpt, the reader first has the impression that it's about raising a child well and American parenting practices. However, the authors quickly reveals that it's about cannibal practices in America, because the text literally is about cooking the meat of children ("a young healthy child well nursed is, at a year old, a most delicious, nourishing and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted").

The fact that the author was told all these by "a very knowing American" suggests that cannibalism is common practice in America, which makes Americans mare savage than the English. This is quite shocking, but, in that time and age, savage practices were quite common.

well stockyards mean a large yard containing pens and sheds, typically adjacent to a slaughterhouse, in which livestock is kept and sorted. and i'm assuming that by party you   mean a large group of people which does make sense because chicago is a very crowded place much like new york. stockyards tend to take up a lot of room due to needing the area for pens to keep animals in and the fact that stockyards are usually right by slaughterhouse where they process and distribute the product. so its much like a zoo but with some dead animal products close by.
