At the Court at Windsor, the Bth day of January,
1850, present, the Queen's Most Excellent Majesty in
Council.—Whereas by an Act, passed in the session of
Parliament held in the second and third years of her
Majesty's reign, intituled "An Act for regulating
the Police-courts iu the Metropolis," it was
amongst other things enacted that it should
be lawful for her Majesty, with the advice of her Privy
Council, to alter the number of magistrates appointed to
any of the said Courts; and whereas the number of police
magistrates heretofore appointed within the metropolitan
police district has been twenty-three, and it is deemed
expedient that the number should be reduced to twenty
as vacancies among the said magistrates shall occur;
and whereas there is now a vacancy at one of the said
Courts (that is to say) at the Southwark Police court,
occasioned by the death of one of the two magistrates
appointed thereto, and whereas, in furtherance of the
said object, her Majesty has been advis( d that
such vacancy should not be filled up; her
Majesty therefore is pleased, with the advice of her
Privy Council, to order and direct, and it is
hereby ordered and directed, that the said vacancy
at the said Southwark Police-court shall not be supplied;
and the Right Honourable Sir George Grey, Bart., one
of her Majesty's Principal Secretaries of State, is to give
the necessary directions herein.
