Still Later from Europe.—There were two arrivals at New-York on Sunday from Liverpool, bringing advice from London to the 30th April. "The news generally," says the Daily Advertiser, "is of a pacific character. The papers are filled with accounts of the Cholera, which was abating in England, and in different parts of France. Paris was said to be in a measure deserted by the wealthy portion of the inhabitants. Upwards of twenty thousand deaths have occurred in that city; but the disease is said to be less violent. The Chamber of Deputies was prorogued. The Reform Bill was expected to be again taken up in the House of Lords on the 8th of May. Numerous meetings had been held in different parts of the kingdom, urging the passage of the bill.

It is stated in the Paris papers, that M. Casimir Perier, in consequence of his attack of the Cholera, was in a state of mental aberration, and it was extremely doubtful whether he survived many days.—There are speculations in the French papers of a war between Russia, Austria, and Prussia against France; but as yet there is nothing but speculations."
