A priest (dressed in black) would stand out clearly on a mountain of (white) sugar. If you are accused of not being able to see such a priest, it means you are unaware or ignorant of something which is clear and obvious to most people

What does the expression Every Englishman is born a double Scotch below par mean?

In the late 1800s white racism was very strong and did not only pertain to blacks. The "Anglo-Saxon" whites believed themselves to be a superior race and discriminated against the immigrants that were rapidly coming into the nation. They discriminated against people because of a slight difference in complexion. In modern times most don't even notice these differences in skin tone, but they did then. This expression is an example of racism.
