Effects of an uniaxial single-ion anisotropy ${\mathit{tsum}}_{\mathit{i}}$${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{z}}$(${\mathit{S}}_{\mathit{i}}^{\mathit{z}}$${)}^{2}$ on the magnetic properties of an S=1 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain with open boundaries are studied by a quantum Monte Carlo method. In the ground stae, how the anisotropy affects the staggered magnetization 〈${\mathit{S}}_{\mathit{i}}^{\mathit{z}}$〉 and the spin correlation functions 〈${\mathit{S}}_{1}^{\mathit{z}}$${\mathit{S}}_{\mathit{i}}^{\mathit{z}}$〉 and 〈${\mathit{S}}_{1}^{\mathit{x}}$${\mathit{S}}_{\mathit{i}}^{\mathit{x}}$〉 is investigated. Amplitudes of 〈${\mathit{S}}_{\mathit{i}}^{\mathit{z}}$〉 decrease with with increase of ${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{z}}$. The correlation length ${\ensuremath{\xi}}_{\mathit{S}\mathit{S}}^{\mathit{z}}$ of 〈${\mathit{S}}_{1}^{\mathit{z}}$${\mathit{S}}_{\mathit{i}}^{\mathit{z}}$〉 monotonously decreases with increase of ${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{z}}$, while the correlation length ${\ensuremath{\xi}}_{\mathit{S}\mathit{S}}^{\mathit{x}}$ of 〈${\mathit{S}}_{1}^{\mathit{x}}$${\mathit{S}}_{\mathit{i}}^{\mathit{x}}$〉 has the opposite but weak ${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{z}}$ dependence. The fourfold degeneracy of the ground state also holds with nonzero ${\mathit{D}}_{\mathit{z}}$'s in the thermodynamic limit although it is lifted up in finite chains. At finite temperatures, the magnetic susceptibilities along the z axis (${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}^{\mathit{z}}$) and the x axis (${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}^{\mathit{x}}$) are calculated. Temperature dependences of the bulk susceptibilites, ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\infty}}}^{\mathit{z}}$ and ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\infty}}}^{\mathit{x}}$, are consistent with the previous experimental result on Ni(${\mathrm{C}}_{2}$${\mathrm{H}}_{8}$${\mathrm{N}}_{2}$${)}_{2}$${\mathrm{NO}}_{2}$${\mathrm{ClO}}_{4}$ (NENP). Finite-size corrections, ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}_{0}^{\mathit{z}}$ and ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}_{0}^{\mathit{x}}$, and the Curie susceptibilities resulting from chain ends, ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}_{\mathit{C}}^{\mathit{z}}$ and ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}_{\mathit{C}}^{\mathit{x}}$, are also investigated in detail. Both ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}_{0}$ and ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}_{\mathit{C}}$ diverge as temperature goes to zero and they are combined through a relation ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}_{\mathit{C}}$=${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}_{0}$+${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}_{\mathrm{\ensuremath{\infty}}}$. Temperature dependences of ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\chi}}}_{\mathit{C}}$ are dominated by the edge effect at low temperatures, while at high temperatures they are attributed to an S=1 free spin.
