A REMARKABLE SPIRITUAL:POEM.
•,The- follotving, striking, poem was recited by
Miss Liz7de • Dpion, a'Spirituhl teatice . speaker;
at the. close of a rerelitdecturedn 'lioitan. She
professed 16 give it impromptu, . as 1 far as'. she
vVasconeerned,. : and, to' speak under , the direct.
influerme of. the spirit'of Edgar A. - Poe. ,
ever may be thd - tritth - altou t its, prrittinitlon - ,,ihe

Miss 'Dotett is apparently.lricapable 61 Origina

less'yonderful its reproductioirof -the singular

manifesting the. soma intensity of fettling.--;
'Whoever wrote •t he poem must ; haVe cx..

.But Miss Doten
honest, and•the pdem‘origirtated . .as she says it
is'unqucstionably the most, astonishing
thing that ',Spiritualism has'lnoduecd. 'lt - does
