Looking at other lists for the same ship in 1852 I think it 's J M Lord.

From the Blackburn Standard 21 April 1852 :

The last 2 voyages of the London packet-ship Northumberland , Captain J M Lord , were made in 30 days . She arrived at New York on the 2d inst ...etc

Looks like Northumberland is correct.

Does it go on to say when it arrived in New York? :)

As already stated it arrived New York 2d inst ie the 2nd of that month , April.  The point of the article was that the ship was able to go out and back in 30 days. I quoted that  piece to confirm the name and Captain, it doesn't refer to your particular voyage.
