the amount paid to him by the overseer, snail be a sue-
cient discharge to the overseers far such arnceint, and
' shall be allowed as such in passing their accounts with
a. // their respective parishes, townships, precincts, of places.
LI. And be it enacted, that in case the sent unt or-
dered by such warrant as aforesaid to be paid by the
overseers in any parish, township, precinct, or place in
the metropolitan burial district shall not be p. dd to the
said treasurer within the time specified for that purpose
in the warrant, it shall be lawful for any justit re of the
peace, upon complaint by the said treasurer, to issue his
warrant for levying the amount, or so much thereof as
may be in arrear, by distress and sale of the goods of all
or any of the said overseers; and in case the goods of all
the overseers shall not be sufficient to pay the same, the
arrears thereof shall be added to the amount of the next
levy which shall be directed to be made in such parish,
township, precinct, or place for the purposes of this Act,
and shall be collected by the like methods.
LII. And be it enacted, that any member of the said
board, or any person having an order for that purpose
under the hands of two members of the said board, may
inspect any county rate made er to be made fur any
county any part of which stall be situate within the
metropolitan burial district, and may also inspect any
returns concerning all or any of the parishes, townships,
precincts, and places, whether parochial or extr,paro-
chial, in the said district, delivered or to deli-
vered iu pursuance of any of the Acts re-
lating to county rates, and may take copies
or extracts from any such rates or returns
without payment of any fee or reward; and if any
person having the custody of any such rate or return
shall wilfully neglect or refuse to permit any such
member or other person to inspect the same, or to
take copies or extracts from the same, within two data
after such order shall have been produced and shown to
him, or a copy thereof left at his usual place of abode,
he shall for every such offence, on summary conviction
thereof before two justices of the peace be liable to a
penalty not exceeding ten pounds.
LIII. And whereas it is expedient to provide for those
precincts and places in the m eropolitan burial district
in which no rate is made for the relief of the poor, or in
which property may be deemed not to be rateable thereto:
be it therefore enacted, that the respective inhabitants
and occupiers of all messuages, lands, tenements, and
hereditaments in any precinct or place, whether paro-
chial or extra-parochial, in the metropolitan burying dis-
trict, although such messuages, lands, tenements, and
hereditaments may not be rated to the relief of the poor,
or may be deemed not to be rateable thereto, shall
nevertheless be liable to contribute under this Act as if
the property so inhabited or occupied were rateable and
rated to the relief of the poor; and the said board may
from time to time, by warrant under their seal, appoint
a proper person to be an assessor, for the purpose of
assessing the full and fair annual value of such property,
and rating the same to a rate to be levied under this
Act; provided always, that the sum to be so levied shall
not exceed in the,Whole in zetyone year the rate of one
penny in the pouted on theshill'und lair annual value of
such property; and such'iiiiesior shall, within forty days
after the delivery to hirri:iff the warrant of his appoint-
ment, make, sign, and return to the said board an assess-
ment for the precinct or place named in such warrant;
and the assessment shall be fairly written in a book, and
shall specify, in different columns, the names of the re-
spective inhabitants or occupiers of all messuages, lands,
tenements, and
,hereditaments, the full and fair annual
value of the same, and the amount of rate charged on
the inhabitants or occupiers thereof, and, when the pre-
mises shall be unoccupied, the full and fair annual value
thereof to let; and every such assessor shall be allowed
for his trouble and expenses such remuneration as the
said board, with the approbation of the Commissioners
of her Majesty's Treasury, shall direct, and the same
shall be paid out of the amount of the rate which shall
be collected after such assessment.
LIV. And be it enacted, that when such assess-
ment shall have been allowed by the said board,
public notice of such assessment, and of the place
where the same may be inspected, shall be given by
fixing such notice on the door of the church or chapel
or some other conspicuous part of the precinct or place
to which such assessment shall relate, upon the Sunday
next or next but one after the same shall have been so
allowed ; and any person in whose custody such assess-
ment may be shall permit every inhabitant or occupier of
property included in such assessment to inspect the same,
and to make any extracts therefrom, without payment
of any fee or reward ; and if such person shall wilfully
neglect or refuse to permit any such inhabitant or occu-
pier to inspect such assessment, or to make any extract
therefrom, he shall for every such offence, on summary
conviction thereof before two justices of the peace, be
liable to a penalty not exceeding five pounds.
LV. And be it enacted, that the said board shall from
time to time nominate one or more persons for levying
the amount of rate charged in every such assessment,
who shall proceed in the same manner, and shall have
the same powers, remedies, and privileges, and shall be
subject to the same regulations and penalties with re-
ference to the levying of such rate, as if he or they were
an overseer or overseers of the poor in a precinct or
place rated to the relief of the poor, and shall pay over
the amount of such rate to the treasurer of the said
board, or in default thereof shall be proceeded against in
the same manner as overseers are by this Act to be pro-
ceeded against f a. non-payment.
IN'. Provided always, and be it enacted, that if any
person who shall have paid the amount of rate charged
upon him by the assesstnent made by an assessor ap-
pointed under this Act shall think himself aggrieved by
such assessment, on the ground that such assessment in-
cludes any property for which he is nut rateable under
this Act, or that it assesses his rat, able property beyond
it, full and fair annual va'ue, or that any person or per-
sons is or are omitted out of such assessment, or that
the property of any person or persons is assessed below
its tub and fair annual value, the person so aggrieved
may appeal to the next court of general or quarter sessions
which shall be holden for the county, corporation, or
franchise in which the cause ti appeal shall hare arisen,
no: less than twenty-one days after public notice of such
assessment shall bare been given as hereinbefore men-
tioned; provided that the person so intending to appeal
shall give to the said board a notice in writine of such
appeal, and of the cause and matter thereof, ten clear
lass at least before such sessions; and shall also, within
three days after his notice of appeal, enter into a recog-
nizance before some justice of the peace of the
county, corporation, or f, anchise, with two sufficient
sureties, conditioned to try such appeal at the said
reisions, and to abide the order of the court thereupon
end to pay such costs as shall be by the court awarded ;
and in case such person shall appeal on the ground that
any person or persons is or are omitted out of the assess-
ment, or that the property of any person or persons is
assessed below its full and fair annual value, the party
so appe sling shall not only give such notice of appeal to
the said board, and enter into such recognizance as afore-
said, but shall also give a like notice of appeal to tho
person or persons so interested in the event of such appeal
as el resaid, end shall enter into a like recognizant within
the times herein-before respectively mentioned ; and the
person or persona so interested shall, if he or they shall
desire it, ho heard upon the appeal ; and the justices of
the peace at such sessions, or some adjournment thereof,
upon due proof of the notice having been given, and of
the recognizance having been entered into as aforesaid,
shall hear and determine the matter of the appeal in a
summary manner, and shall make such order therein,
with or without costs to either party, as the said justices
shall think proper ; and in case the said justices shall
think the appellant entitled to relief, they shall order
the assessment to be amended in such manner as may be
necessary for giving
