He studied law with his father and was admitted to the bar April 5, 1820. After practicing at Reading, Pennsylvania, for a while he moved to Orwigsburg, then the county-seat of Schuylkill County, and there continued his profession for a number of years. He represented that district in Congress for two terms from 1835 to 1839. He held the appointment of canal commissioner of the state for several years under Governor David R. Porter, and acted as a commissioner of Indian affairs under President Polk. About 1848 he returned to Reading and continued to reside here for eight years; then he removed to Philadelphia, and died there shortly afterward.
