Charles Ogle (1798 – May 10, 1841) was an American attorney and politician who served as an Anti-Masonic and Whig member of the United States House of Representatives from Pennsylvania.
[4] Ogle was elected as an Anti-Masonic candidate to the Twenty-fifth and Twenty-sixth Congresses.
His ""Gold Spoon Oration" (1840) mocked the supposed grandeur of President Martin Van Buren, contributing to the latter's loss to William Henry Harrison later that year.
[citation needed] He served as chairman of the United States House Committee on Roads and Canals during the Twenty-sixth Congress,[5] but died in office of tuberculosis on 10 May 1841 in his home in Somerset, Pennsylvania.
