He was graduated in law at the University of San Carlos, Buenos Ayres, in 1853, practised in Buenos Ayres, and in 1862 was elected deputy to the Federal congress, where he became one of the leaders of the National party. In 1865 he was elected president of the national congress, but when the war with Paraguay began he resigned, and served as lieutenant-colonel. In 1872 he was elected to the national senate, and was its president for four years.
