Stewart served in the Vermont House of Representatives from 1860 to 1862. He also served in local offices, including Justice of the Peace.
During the American Civil War Stewart served in the Vermont Militia as Judge Advocate of the 1st Brigade with the rank of First Lieutenant.
In 1864 Stewart was named State Auditor, and he held the position until his death in Middlebury on March 23, 1870. Stewart was buried in Middlebury's West Cemetery.
