He began the practice of law in Castleton, Vermont, in 1807. Mallary married Ruth Stanley Mallary, and they had four children.

Mallary was elected trustee of the Rutland County Grammar School in 1807.

Mallary served six terms in Congress. He was elected as a Democratic-Republican to the Seventeenth Congress, reelected as an Adams-Clay Democratic-Republican to the Eighteenth Congress, and elected as an Adams candidate to the Nineteenth and Twentieth Congresses.
