If he's barking in the house you can break that easily enough. Clap your hands to get his attention, make him sit then pet him a little until he gets the idea of 'barking and petting' then reduce the petting but continue the attention getting noise. He'll figure out quickly enough that he shouldn't be barking in the house.
We have two of them and they rarely bark inside the house.
Outside is a different story. I just stick my head out the door and tell them to hush, some times they listen, some times they don't. And don't forget that they BAY when they catch the scent of a rabbit or squirrel. It should be a very different sound than barking and you won't be able to stop that, it's a trait of the breed.

Beagles, being a hunting, are natural born barkers. They tend to bark and howl more than most breeds. Your beagle is fine, happy, and healthy.
