Excerpt from Antiquity of Coins, Elenoire, &C One of the poems has the name of Walter Scott attached to it, which was the name annexed by the medium's hand. Any one acquainted with Scott's poems cannot fail to discover his peculiar style in this poem. The subject, also, is of a character that Scott's muse loved to dwell upon. The four pieces with the name of Byron attached to them have been recently written - with in the present month. The ste of the first three the intelligent reader will perceive not to be derogatory to Byron's Muse; and if the last appears more like the effusion of some modern reformer than an emanation from the mind of the author of Childe Harold, yet he should remember that it is not impossible for the spirit of the noble lord to have caught the spirit of the age, and to be willing to write something in the vein even of the Com Law Rhymer. But I need not enlarge upon the subjects or merit of these articles. They speak for themselves. They are presented to the public, not as perfect specimens in the art of composition, whether of prose or poetry - but as an addition to the ten thousand evidences that are contin ually presented to persons who think, and those, also, who have not been accustomed to reason and investigate, that beings in another state of exist ence are holding intercourse with the inhabitants of earth, As such the candid attention of the reader is asked for them.
