He commenced the prac- tice of his profession successfully and was shortly afterwards elected clerk of the House of Representatives of Tennessee. — ■ In 1823 he was elected a member of that body from Maury County, where he ...resided, and served as such for. Two sessions- He was active, when there, in presenting the name of Andrew Jackson to the people of the Union for the Presidency. in 1825, when thirty years of age, he was elected to Con* gress, of which body he continued a member for fourteen years; the last four years of which he presided over, its deliberations, as Speaker with great dignity and ability.
