EDITORS AFLOAT.

The editor of the BULLETIN leaves for Kauai by the Mikahala this evening, and hopes to return by the same vessel. He goes for sea air and health. The poor fellow has been all out of shape for a couple of weeks past—in fact, had to stop home and do nothing most of last week. His head, he says, is out of order. His readers will find no difficulty in believing this!

The editor of the "Gazette" is also going by the same steamer and on the same errand, combining perhaps a little work with recreation. His head is believed to be crumpled up considerably, too,—of which the "Gazette" is held to be sufficient evidence.

It is to be hoped that these two played-out, head-sick editors will fight out their differences between themselves on board ship or over on Kauai, that they will return in a healthier and stronger condition of mind than their respective papers have indicated for some time past, or that they will prolong their absence indefinitely! Aloha, brains.
