PARENTAL PERPLEXITIEs.

People talk about red tape in this
country as if they had, at some period
of their lives, been enveloped in its folds
and in official circles. There is q good
deal Of it used unnecessarily and annoy
ingly, but in social or domestic life the
American people are quite free from its
restraints as compared with their trans
Atlantic neighbors, as witness the diff
ficulties which Mr.. F. Wynekin had in
getting his baby christened. Herr
Wynekin is a resident of Koenigsberg,
Prussia, when business calls him to this
country once year. In 1873 he brought
his wife over with him to see the coun-
try, and, on the eve Of their departure
from New York, Mrs. w. astonished Mr..
W. with the rather premature present of
a healthy little girl. As the young lady
manifested such O. determination to be
an American citizen it was resolved to
give her an American name. In absence
of any personal friends after whom to
christen her, the mother suggested the
name of the United States frigate "Ma-
rion," which she had seen and admired
in some foreign port.
On their return home to Prussia the
parents applied to the authorities to have
the child christened pro forma, and gave
the name of the American vessel as her
godmother. After great deal Of pa
laver and searching for precedents, the
wiseacres of the Government refused to
grant the request without the written
consent Of the party whose name was to
be Appropriated! The christening was
indefinitely postponed until the father
could procure the consent of
the commanding officer of the
Marion to use her name. Application to
do this was formally made a short time
since by Mr.. Wynekin, who assures the
Captain "that not the slightest liability
will be incurred, either by you or the
frigate, in granting us this fa.or." As a
refusal is hardly possible, the little
female Wynekin win probably be prop
erly christened about her second birth.
