The second USS Delaware was a ship which served in the United States Navy during Quasi-War with France.

During the Quasi-War with France, Delaware cruised to protect American merchant shipping from French privateers.

The privateer had captured the merchantman Liberty, Vredenburg, master, which had been sailing from Philadelphia to Liverpool.

In a letter dated 20 February 1801 to Josiah Parker, Chaiman of the Committee on Naval Affairs, Navy Secretary Stoddert recommended selling her.
