From New York June 7 a correspondent notes Lord Ashburton's mission to settle the Maine boundary is near completion. Commission members from Maine and Massachusetts proceed to Washington, Mr Webster travels back for final treaty terms, with accord on most points aside from one issue.

Lord Ashley's Bill Passes Quietly in Commons Backed by Consensus
The House approves Lord Ashley's Bill without a division, crediting all sides for concessions that preserve the principle. The bill retains immediate exclusion of all females from underground labor in mines, with debate on child labor age narrowing to about thirteen as a starting point while urging broader education and addressing root causes of ignorance and immorality.
