The 38th Delaware General Assembly was a meeting of the legislative branch of the state government, consisting of the Delaware Senate and the Delaware House of Representatives. Elections were held on the first Tuesday of October and terms began on the first Tuesday of January. It met in Dover, Delaware, convening on January 4, 1814, two weeks before the beginning of the first year of the administration of Governor Daniel Rodney.

The apportionment of seats was permanently assigned to three senators and seven representatives for each of the three counties. The population of the county did not affect the number of delegates. Both chambers had a Federalist majority.
