LIABILITY OF PARTNERS AND HEIRS.


Each partner is liable for the whole tax of his firm. Each heir is liable for the whole tax assessed to the heirs of an undivided estate. All taxes on real estate are a lien on the estate.


ABATEMENT OF TAXES.


To obtain an abatement of tax, good reason must be given to the assessors. To prevent errors in tax bills, citizens should render to the assessors a true account of their property before the first of August. Abatements of taxes, which shall be at any time allowed, shall be recorded by the asses- sors, and the record thereof shall contain the names of all person whose taxes shall be abated in whole or in part, with the amount originally assessed, and the amount of abatements. The reasons for abatements shall be stated on said record, against the name of each person whose tax shall be abated ; and this record shall be laid before the City Coun- cil, annually, on or before the fourth day of March. The city clerk is instructed to inform the assessors of all abatements made by the Mayor and Alder- men, at the time they are made.


PAYMENT OF TAXES.


It is the duty of the assessors to make out and deliver to the treasurer and collector, tax bills for all taxes assessed on all persons and estates, on or before the first day of October. The city treseurer and collector shall immediately issue the tax bills, and if they are not paid within thirty days there- after, he is required by a State law to issue a num- mons to each delinquent person assessed ; and if such person shall not pay his taxes within ten days after the receipt of such summons, or after the service thereof upon him in the usual forma, the QUALIFICATIONS FOR VOTING. treasurer shall issue his warrant for the collection To vote in the city, a man must be a citizen of said taxes according to law.

OITY REGISTRAR.


CITY REGISTRAR.


ARTEMAS SIMONDS, REGISTRAR. Salary, $1,200. Clerk hire, $860. Office, Oity Building, 21 Court Square.


BIRTHS, MARRIAGES, DEATHS.


An ordinance was passed in 1849. providing for carrying into effect in this city the laws of the State relating to Births, Marriages, and Deaths. The office of Superintendent of Burials was abolished, and that of City Registrar created in its stead. The Registrar is chosen in February or March, by the concurrent vote of the two branches of the city government. All births, marriages, and deaths, which take place in the city, are now required to be returned to this office, to be recorded, with such particulars in regard to each as the law requires.


It is important that this law should be strictly carried into effect; to the public, that the health and condition of the population may be known; and to every individual, that evidence may be furnished by the records of the three great events of life, the birth, the marriage, and the death. Great personal inconvenience and pecuniary loss have often arisen from want of this evidence.


BIRTHS.


Notwithstanding the law explicitly requires that parents make the requisite returns, yet but few have hitherto complied with it. The Registrar, therefore, was authorized to cause the city to be carrassed for the purpose of collecting the necessary facts. Mr. George Adams, publisher of the Boston Directory, is entrusted with this work. This year the city was canvassed in May, and will be again in January next, in order to collect the number of births in 1852.


From the annual report of the City Registrar in January last, we gather most of the following statements :


During the year 1851, five thousand three hundred and thirty-eight births have been registered, mamely. 2,788 males and 2,550 females ; children of 1,757 American fathers and 1,806 American mothers ; and of 3,392 fathers and 3,372 mothers of foreign birth ; the nativity of 149 fathers and 121 mothers. being unknown.


MARRIAGES.


During the past year the intentions of marriage of two thousand nine hundred and fifty-three couples have been entered, and certificates issued; namely, 1,382 male and 1,366 female Americans; and 1,671 males and 1,537 females, natives of foreign countries.


Two thousand eight hundred and sixty-three marriages have been recorded, the parties being in about the same proportion as to their origin.


It is satisfactory that there has been a commendable improvement in making returns for registration by Clergymen and Magistrates. Still some have been tardy, and it is believed that a considerable number of marriages, even of last year, are not registered. Delinquents in this matter should under- stand not only that they are liable to a severe penalty for each neglect, but that innocent parties often muffer serious inconvenience from such omission. The records are often examined to prove marriages and legitimacy, for the benefit of widows and heirs.


When the male party to a marriage resides in one town or city, and the female in another, the intention should be entered and a certificate obtained in each. Clergymen may perform the marriage ceremony, the intention having been duly entered, either in the places where they reside or where one or both parties reside; but a Suffolk Clergyman has no legal authority to marry in Berkshire, parties belonging to Suffolk or Worcester.


No certificates of intentions of marriage are issued from this office, unless one or both parties are described as dwelling here.


DEATHS.


Three thousand eight hundred and fifty-five deaths, which occurred within the limits of the City, have been registered ; namely, 1,966 males and 1,889 females, 1,728 being of American, and 2,122 of foreign origin, as nearly as can be ascertained.


HEALTH REGULATIONS.


The department relative to the interment of the dead is placed under the superintendence of the Oity Registrar.


The City Registrar is authorised to give licenses for burials, by Funeral Undertakers only, and for the removal of dead bodies from the City for interment.


No person shall inter or cause to be interred any dead body, and no person shall remove or cause to be removed from the City, for interment, any dead body, without having first obtained a license from the City Registrar.


No person not appointed a Funeral Undertaker by the Mayor and Aldermen, shall undertake the management of any funeral.


Funeral Undertakers are not allowed to dig or open graves in the City proper, and no dead body hall be buried in South Boston or East Boston, in a grave less than three feet from the top of the tofan to the surface of the surrounding ground.


Penalty for violations of the Ordinance in any of its particulars, from five to twenty dollars and costs. Further information in regard to interments, in or out of the City, Undertakers' fees, and use of meral cars, may be obtained at the City Registrar's Office, Court Square, and of the licensed Funeral Indertakers of the City.
