Le Vengeur-du-Peuple ou Marseillois est un navire de guerre français en service de 1766 à 1794. C'est un vaisseau de ligne de troisième rang portant 74 canons sur deux ponts. Il est lancé dans la période de sursaut patriotique qui suit les défaites de la guerre de Sept Ans. Il participe à la guerre d'Indépendance américaine, mais il est surtout connu pour sa perte au combat de Prairial en 1794, dans des circonstances que la propagande révolutionnaire a glorifiées.

She took part in the naval operations in the American Revolutionary War in Admiral d'Estaing's squadron, duelling Preston in a single-ship action on 11 August 1778, taking part in the Battle of the Chesapeake where she duelled HMS Intrepid, and supporting the flagship Ville de Paris at the Battle of the Saintes. She also took part in the Battle of Saint Kitts. After the French Revolution, she was renamed Vengeur du Peuple and took part in the Glorious First of June. There, she was disabled after a furious duel with HMS Brunswick and surrendered after losing hope of being rescued by a French ship. After a few hours, as British ships were beginning rescue operations, she listed and foundered, taking almost half her crew with her. The sinking of Vengeur du Peuple was used as propaganda by the National Convention and Bertrand Barère, who gave birth to the legend that the crew had gone down with the ship fighting, rather than surrender. The Scottish historian Thomas Carlyle repeated the tale in his The French Revolution: A History, yielding a rebuttal by Rear-Admiral , who had witnessed the events. Although discredited in naval history circles, the legend lived on as a folk tale, inspiring numerous representations and a fictional account by Jules Verne in Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea.
