1790 AD (search for this): article 4
The Anglo-Saxon race. The Enquirer attributes the first use of this term to Sharon Turner. The first time we ever saw it was in one of Barke's speeches in the House of Commons, on a bill to settle the Government of Canada. This was delivered about the year 1790. Fox, in commenting upon the bill, had said that the Canadians were entitled to more liberty, in the article of self-government, than it gave them. That they were in fact capable of self-government. He pointed to the neighboring country — the United States--as affording an example of the capacity of man to govern himself. Burke in reply said that the example was not to the point — that the United States were peopled by the "Anglo-Saxon race," whom he esteemed peculiarly capable of self-government, whereas the Canadians were a mongrel race, principally French, who, he said, were every day proving themselves more and more unworthy to be entrusted with that power.

We are confident, however, that he called the English, and their descendants, "Anglo-Saxons," and that we first saw the term in that speech. Daniel Defœ says that the English is the most composite of all nations. An English man has the blood of nearly every nation in Europe in his veins. The old Romans, we suppose, left some of their stock grafted on the natives, who were Celts. Then come the Saxons, then the Danes, then the Normans all grafting on the same stock. Besides there has been intermarrying, to a vast extent, with Scotchmen, Irishmen, Welshmen, Frenchmen, Dutchmen, Italians, Spaniards, &c. Undoubtedly, however, the blood of the ancient Briton (Celt) prevails most largely. The Saxons could not have exterminated them, though they slow enough of them, in all conscience. They must still have continued to be the vast majority.
