The Daily Dispatch: November 24, 1863., [Electronic resource], Government whiskey. (search)

Government whiskey. --What does the Confederate Government do with its whiskey, asks the Lexington (Va.) Gazette? Rockingham is manufacturing it at the rate of nearly 200,000 gallons per year, Augusta county about 300,000 gallons, giving a total amount for two counties of 500,000. Suppose these two counties to make one-tenth of all that is made in the State, (which is probably a low estimate,) and we have five millions (5,000,000) of gallons as Virginia's contribution to this line of supplies. Now if all the other States together furnish as much more, we have no less than ten millions (10,000,000) of gallons. This is enough to deluge all the hospitals in the Confederacy with all the patients they contain.
