They are at once light and airy, each having a large side or port window, and a patent deck light. They are twenty-four in number, in all; and will consequently accommodate forty-eight passengers. The furniture in both cabins is appropriate and neat. The tables are of mahogany. At the upper end of the saloon there is a sofa across the full breadth of the apartment, double the length of ordinary sofas. Over this is fixed a handsome mirror. The subsidiary accommodations are of the first order. The steward's pantry, leading out of the ladies' cabin, and with an entrance from the main deck, is unusually spacious, and is replete with glass, china ware, &c., for the dispensing of "the good things of this life." In fine, the Patrick Henry is a well-built, well-found, and beautiful vessel. She will form a valuable addition to the line ships running between this port and New York, and we wish her every success."

York contemporary says, in noticing this vessel—"To speak of new packets is so common an occurrence, that it attracts but little attention. Nautical men, however, are never tired of seeing a new ship. A large number of gentlemen, familiar with the science of ship-building, have visited this extraordinary vessel, and have pronounced her to be, in every respect, one of the finest ships now belonging to this or any other port." Our contemporary will be gratified to learn that many gentlemen, equally versed in naval architecture, on this side the
Atlantic, have visited the "Patrick Henry," and express a high opinion, corroborative of that of their Transatlantic brethren. As we feel assured—such is the interest taken in whatever belongs to navigation in this maritime country—that not only nautical, but mercantile men, and Englishmen generally, are never weary of hearing of improvement in naval architecture, we shall notice this new packet-ship more particularly.
1837:"Between 1838 and 1847 no less than 21 mail-carrying ships were lost on the North Atlantic route – two each year on average. Two of the ships were Falmouth packets and two were steamers, while 17 were American sailing packets. Eight were on the New York–Liverpool route, two on the Boston–Liverpool route, two on the New York–London route, and five on the New York–Havre route. Six of the ships just disappeared, and were lost with all hands. It is notable that two out of every three wrecks took place in November–February, indicating that the packet captains took too heavy risks, especially during the rough winter sailings. The only precautionary measure to ensure solid business information transmission across the Atlantic was to send duplicates. This was very typical during the shift period. The duplicates also ensured the fastest possible dispatch of information."

The cornice is of dark wood and mahogany, with gilded mouldings. The contrast formed by these various coloured woods is striking; yet the whole harmonizes, and has a splendid and gorgeous effect. The ladies' cabin, farther forward, adjoins the saloon, the two forming, by the lowering of a large panel between, hung in the manner of a window, one continuous apartment of great length and elegance. It is finished in the same style as the other, and may be entered from the main deck, with which both cabins are flush.

In the top panel of each of the state-room doors, which is of satin wood, is an oval Venetian blind, also of satin wood. Between each door and compartment, are convex pilasters—fourteen on each side—of rosewood thrown out on a broad convex ground or back-work of zebra-wood.
801:. Minturn reportedly once noted that the $ 5 million spent on ship fares in 1847, "substantially reduced the cost of carrying freight," and helped the economy by lowering the price of American cotton and grain for English buyers. According to the website, An Irish Passenger, An American Family, And Their Time, profit, "rather than humanitarian impulses" drove immigration, "and because government regulatory agencies and private philanthropies were unwilling or unable to exert much control over that business, 19th century emigrants were often literally treated as human freight."

Sometimes it was for an individual, sometimes for a family of foreigners, who had come to America in search of what they did not find —
2052:. Its shrewd, farsighted Quaker element saw the possibilities of packet service to Europe. Sailing on advertised dates, the ships grew in tonnage from year to year and made their owners rich. The usual method of division in New York was by partial ownership. An agent owned an eighth, a builder, to ensure his getting the repair work, which amounted to about five hundred dollars a round trip, owned another eighth. The captain might own an equal share and perhaps a sixteenth each was held by the block maker and the sailmaker. The rest of course was vested in the owner."

For instance, in this ship, there were in one berth, three young girls going to their friends, about 16, 17, and 18 years of age, and an old man, 64 years, and the whole four entire strangers to each other till they met in the ship. There were a great many more cases equally bad. Several of the passengers expostulated with the captain on this strange usage, but the only answer he would give was, that he had nothing to do with it, as they had paid their money to agents."

1846:"Another phenomenon which indicates that the sailing packets were losing their hold on the first class business – mail, fine freight and cabin passengers – was that they no longer cared about the punctuality of the sailing dates as much as they did in the 1830s. If the reliability of a mail ship service is measured by the regularity of sailings and the safety records, the performance of the American sailing packets in the mid-1840s was noticeably below such expectations."

of judgment. For westbound sailings, there was a high risk of disaster. Nearly one packet in six was totally lost in service. This means that out of 6,000 crossings, about 22 ended in such wrecks. More than 600 British ships, of all types, were lost each year in between 1833 and 1835 and 1841 and 1842. The loss of lives varied between 1,450 and 1,560.
