GorSG THE WHOLE HoG.--Dr. Elder, the statistieian of the Treasury Department, has compiled some figures in regard to bOgs, and the hog trade, that throw some light upon the expression going the whole hog" or, at least, show that if such phrase is allowable anywhere, it would be in America.
 In seven of the chief European nations, with . PoPalstion of two hundred aHd fifteen mill ions, there is only oDe-sixteenth of pig of two hundred pounds to each person. In this country We have hog and tAree-huRdredths apiece, thus enabling Americans not only to go the whole boz but to do so with small margin to share.
