(Received June 22, 12 30 p.m.) Madrid, June 20. The cholera continues to increase rapidly in the south-east of this country. During the past few days no less than 2000 cases, 800 of which have ended fatally, have been reported from the provinces o? Valencia, Castille, De la Plaoia, and Muroia. A few deaths have occurred in this city, and a very general feeling of alarm prevails. (Received June 23, 0.45 a.m.) A riot of a serious character occurred here yesterday. Some tradesmen resented the proclamation declaring the presence of cholera within the city, and the mob declining to disperse when summoned to do so by the authorities were fired upon by the military. The riot was not repressed until many persons were severely injured..
