It was built under government contract by Benjamin Talman and James De Wolf in Rhode Island   It was launched  21 January 1799 and first commanded by Christopher R. Perry, whose son, Oliver Hazard Perry, was a midshipman on his father's ship.

Its first mission in 1799 resulted in damage during a heavy gale, putting into Havana, Cuba, for repairs and the crew being struck with yellow fever with more than twenty dying.  It returned to the U.S. to clean up the illness and then took station at San Domingo for six months.
