19. The commissioners shall determine, and from time to time may, as they may see fit, alter the number of the guardians to be elected in each union, and the number to be elected for every electoral division, having due regard to the circumstances of each such division (so nevertheless that every person qualified to vote in the union shall be entitled to vote in the election of one guardian at the least), and may also fix the value of the qualification by which male persons of full age shall be eligible as such guardians, such qualification to consist in being entitled to vote at elections of guardians in such union, but not so as to require a qualification exceeding the net annual value of thirty pounds: Provided always, that no person, being in holy orders, or being a regular minister of any religious denomination, shall be eligible as a guardian.
