| ship Taymouth Castle :— |
| This Government emigrant ship arrived yesterday,
as elsewhere more fully announced, after a passage of
84 days from Plymouth, from which port the departure
took place on the 7th February, with 286 souls exclusive
of the officers and the crew. The official classification
of the emigrants is as follows:- |
Married couples 46
Single men 10, Single women 116
Children above one year & under 14 years, male 29, female
31
Infants under one year, male 4, female 4
.
Births, six occurred during the voyage
.
Deaths, one infant from dysentery

| . . . so that the total number of souls
on arriving was five more than the period of departure
from
England.
We have learned with great pleasure that there has been
much harmony during the voyage, and that the emigrants,
who appear to be in high spirits, speak very warmly in
praise of the Surgeon Superintendent, as also of Captain
Logan, his officers, and crew. The Weather is said to
have been extremely favourable during the voyage. The
Emigrants are chiefy from England, and their healthful
condition is highly satisfactory. |

| The "Taymouth Castle" arrived
from Plymouth on the 3d of May, after a passage of 86
days, with 295
emigrants ; 11 births and two deaths occurred at sea.
The ship was in very good order. The arrangement of the
berths in this vessel was on a different system from
any hitherto employed. They were grouped together in
blocks on the telescope principle, so that when not in
use they might be reduced to half their size ; and the
tables were constructed in such a manner as to be allowed
to occupy the vacant space during the day. I am not disposed
to look on this system as being a desirable mode of berthing
emigrant ships. When it becomes necessary to allow one
emigrant to remain in bed during the day, the table in
that group of berths cannot be used, and about 11 persons
are put to great inconvenience for the sake of one. Where
no great amount of sickness prevails, such a system might
not seriously interfere with the general comfort of the
ship, as arrangements might be made to meet individual
cases of temporary sickness; but were any general epedimic
[sic] to prevail, the inconvenience produced by the wants
of the tables would be excessive. The inner half of the
bottom boards of the berths, constructed in the manner
described, were fixtures ; this is decidedly objectionable,
as it interferes with the proper cleaning of the ship.
The surgeon-superintendent recommends that the different
beds should be numbered, as great disturbance was caused
amongst the young women every time the beds were taken
on deck, by their disputes about ownership. In this ship
there was put on board by the Commissioners an oven capable
of baking about 160lbs. of bread at a time, in order
to afford the emigrants, especially the women and children,
an occasional supply of soft bread ; the supply of flour
to the emigrants was, by this means, issued to them four
times in the week, in the shape of soft bread. This is
a great improvement, and, I think, if adopted in all
ships would not only add greatly to the comfort but also
to the health of the people, if precautions were taken
that means are used for properly leavening the bread,
so as to make it light and digestible. |
