From the Neic York Tribune.

The death of this widely known and emnently
devoted missionary Is announced in letters by the
Hibernia TO have taken place the 18th of April,
on board of the French brig Aristide, bound to the
Isle of Bourbon, in which he had taken passag &c for
the benefit of his health. His remains were COM
mtted to the deep on the evening of his death For
some time past the health of Dr. Judson, which had
been seriously impaired for several years, has been
known to be in an alarming state, and the news OF
his decease accordingly will not come I'M
lookedfor blow upon his wide circle of friends. DR..
Judson was the son of Rev. Adoniram Judson, a
Congregational clergyman in Plymouth county,
Massachusetts. lie received his collegiate educa-
ton ut Brown University, with the original intcn-
ton of pursuing the profession of the law, but
periencing great change in his religious views
soon after bis graduation he entered the Theologi
cal seminary at AndOver. During his residence at
this institution, profound interest In foreign mis-
sions was awakened among the students, which re-
suited IN his determination 10 devote his life 10 the
missionary service.
Leaving his native land, among the fret mission
aries sent forth by the American board, in com.
pany with Samuel Neyill, Luther Rice and Samuel
Mott, he arrived in Calcutta in 1912. la conse-
quence Of studies during the voyage, he was led to
change his opinions on the subject Of baptism, and
short time after his landing received the rite Of
immersion from the hands OF one OF the English
missionaries resident in Calcutta His sermon on
that occasion, which produced deep impression
on the religious world, IL a master piece Of logical
argument scnptursl research and grave eloquence.
