  • The departures for Australia are given subject to revision, as the Customs emigration returns do not include all passengers who go on board without booking. The numbers may eventually be increased somewhat after receipt of returns from the shipping companies.

† It is important to mention that, in the returns from which this table is made up, immigrants to the colony are all counted at the first port of arrival, and emigrants at the final port of departure.
