CALAIS, Maine, April l2.-There was much excite
ment yesterday and last night at St. Stephens, New
Brunswick, opposite this city. Fears of Fenian
rail- somewhere on the frontier have been strength
enng for several days. but the precise point Of at
tack Is not yet known. Reports from Eastport yes
terday Indicated that the Fenians were leaving there
in squads supposed for Calais but up to this time
they have not shown themselves here. From two to
three hundred men under arms at St. Stephens
all last night and all the approaches to the city are
strongly guarded. Every preparation has been made
to receive the Fenians. An attack was expected las
night but everything passed off quietly The force
at ST. Stephens is to be increased day to five hun
