As a result of the March unrest of 1848 , he had to resign like his colleagues from his offices.

In 1853 he was elected to the Basic Legislative Assembly and to the Landsthing . In the same year he was appointed Prime Minister on April 21, 1853. At the same time, he also administered the Ministry of Culture, the Ministry of the Interior and later the Ministry of Justice.
