Counts from 0 to 60.

var count = 0, timer = setInterval(function() {
    $("#counter").html((count++)+1);
    if(count == 59) clearInterval(timer);
}, 1000);

Or from 60 to 0:

var count = 60, timer = setInterval(function() {
    $("#counter").html(count--);
    if(count == 1) clearInterval(timer);
}, 1000);
