We have seldom seen a larger or more respectable class of passengers arriving at this port — they are mostly all mechanics, and we believe about half of them will land here and the rest go to Adelaide. 7 male and 5 female adults, and 16 children, died during the passage, and two births occurred on board.— Melbourne Daily News The Hamburg ship Emmy arrived Port Adelaide 16 January 1850, from Hamburg 5 September 1849, via Melbourne 4 January, with sundries ; 400 passengers, including 145 for Adelaide; 30 died of dysentery, etc., on the voyage to Melbourne, the vessel appearing to be in good order but overcrowded.
