  The generalized forward spin polarizabilities $\gamma_0$ and $\delta_{LT}$ of
the neutron have been extracted for the first time in a $Q^2$ range from 0.1 to
0.9 GeV$^2$. Since $\gamma_0$ is sensitive to nucleon resonances and
$\delta_{LT}$ is insensitive to the $\Delta$ resonance, it is expected that the
pair of forward spin polarizabilities should provide benchmark tests of the
current understanding of the chiral dynamics of QCD. The new results on
$\delta_{LT}$ show significant disagreement with Chiral Perturbation Theory
calculations, while the data for $\gamma_0$ at low $Q^2$ are in good agreement
with a next-to-lead order Relativistic Baryon Chiral Perturbation theory
calculation. The data show good agreement with the phenomenological MAID model.
