He left the army in 1826, and went to live with his brother in Airlie Castle. In January 1831, he contested a by-election for the Perth Burghs. His rival Francis Jeffrey was returned as the winner, but Ogilvy lodged a petition, and was declared elected on 28 March 1831. The 1831 general election followed a few weeks later, and Ogilvy began canvassing, but withdrew for lack of support. (en)
