__NOTOC__ The ''Columbian Centinel'' (1790-1840) was a Boston, Massachusetts, newspaper established by Benjamin Russell. It continued its predecessor, the ''Massachusetts Centinel and the Republican Journal'', which Russell and partner William Warden had first issued on March 24, 1784.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.loc.gov/rr/news/18th/182.html )〕 The paper was "the most influential and enterprising paper in Massachusetts after the Revolution."〔Frederic Hudson. Journalism in the United States from 1690 to 1872. 1873; p.147.〕 In the Federalist Era it was aligned with Federalist sentiment. Until c. 1800 its circulation was the largest in Boston, and its closest competitor was the anti-Federalist ''Independent Chronicle'' ("the compliments that were frequently exchanged by these journalistic adversaries were more forcible than polite").〔Boston newspapers 100 years ago. Boston Daily Globe, Dec 27, 1903; p.27.〕 Russell "can be justly characterized as the Horace Greeley of his time."〔American press founded at Boston in April, 1704; spans 200 years. Boston Daily Globe, Apr 18, 1904; p.5.〕 In 1828 Russell sold the ''Centinel'' to Joseph T. Adams and Thomas Hudson, who continued publishing it.〔Joseph Tinker Buckingham. Specimens of Newspaper Literature. 1852; p.99.〕 In 1840, the ''Centinel'' merged with a number of other Boston papers—the ''Independent Chronicle & Boston Patriot'', the ''Boston Commercial Gazette'', and the ''New-England Palladium''—to form the ''Boston Semi-weekly Advertiser'',〔(【引用サイトリンク】author=Library of Congress )〕 which eventually became the Boston Herald. ==Variant titles== *''The Massachusetts Centinel: and the Republican Journal''.
