I would wonder if most of them could make the Atlantic crossing. The old frigate and the two corvettes could. I wonder about the 14 gunboats and schooners, the 9 paddle steamers. Just crewing them to cross the Atlantic would take a thousand officers and men, maybe quite a few more.
I don't have a list of names for those ships. The frigate might have been one of the
Radetzky class (British built 1854-56, screw frigate, crew 368, armament 20 x 30pdr, 9 x 24pdr, 2 x 4pdr, speed 12 knots, soon after a veteran of the 1864 Battle of Heligoland and the 1866 Battle of Lissa) or the Novara (old wooden frigate, originally Venetian navy, sailed around the world 1857-59, completely rebuilt as a screw steam frigate 1861-62, which Archduke Ferdinand Max travelled to Mexico on in 1864, armament 4 × 60-pounder SB Paixhans guns, 28 × 30-pounder Novara guns, 2 × 24-pounder Breechload

It might be some other older ship.
