Spectropolarimetric observations of the magnetic white dwarf GRW+70~8247 in the $\lambda\lambda$1280--1600 range were obtained with the {\sl Faint Object Spectrograph\/} aboard the {\sl Hubble Space Telescope\/}. A dramatic increase in both the linear and circular polarization was found to coincide with a decline in the continuum flux below 1500~\AA . High levels of linear (20\%) and circular (12\%) polarization were observed in the $\lambda\lambda$1300--1400 range and were not confined to the well-known absorption feature at 1347~\AA .
