Just search for 'Fortitude' and then narrow to arrivals and 1855.
Click on the first passenger name (should be William ACKERLEY)
Choose "Book 5" from the left hand menu

A list of at least some of the passengers who disembarked at Adelaide, including a Bright here:
1855 'SHIPPING INTELLIGENCE. ARRIVED.', Adelaide Observer (SA : 1843 - 1904), 3 February, p. 4. , viewed 23 Jan 2018, http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article158101974
The Tasmanian passenger list seems to only have details of the emigrants who arrived there, maybe someone else can dig out details for those that hopped off at Adelaide?

Thank for all that info, yeah i noticed that when i looked at the passenger list from hobart. I thought he may have been on it but highlighted that the passenger got of in Port Adelaide.
I would imagine that there is a hard copy of the list somewhere.

Mention of a "James Bright, brickmaker, Gawler" here:

No, I don't think so. Passenger list survival is not all that great for SA.

Murray McLean (9), of Kooringa avenue Plympton, had a narrow escape
from sustaining fatal injuries when he fell a distance of about 35 ft. on Satur
day afternoon. With other childrm he was climbing a tall gum tree in search
of birds nests, when the limb of the tree which he was standing on, snapped.
The boy fell, but came in contact with another limb which assisted to break
his fall. When he was picked up he was in a dazed condition. He was taken to the hospital suffering from abrasions and an injury to his abdomen. Last night the hospital authorities reported that his condition was not very serious, and that he was comfortable.
