PIBB CouSrY.-Dwing The past week we indul- ged in a hasiyvsit lo Bibb, 10 attend Court &c &c and had quite pleasant time of it. We enjoyed one uxnry in ite fish way, decidedly; for we ate some of the red "Shad'-sueh as we have seen from the Connecticut River in bo,hood's day. They were caught in he Cahawba River, by our mob e hearted old tiem Henry Adams, Esq. in trap, and it was al his lah that introduced oursef 10 that in our estimation, most delicious of the 6nny tribe.
 Ribb is rough couniry-land poor, with some few exceptions hut contains full share of glorious good fellows. IL is called poor, very poor country 1; but in estimation, it IS, or will le, one oi the richest coulies inthe State. In Coal, Iron. Mar be and water powsr, Bibb county is rich indeed - No finer locations can be found in any country for factories, &c. Sc than are to be met with m vari- ous parts of the c,uny. The day is not distant 1t IS to be hoped, wien their value will be appreciated. 'SchuIIz creek" which is only some l2 miles m length, affords allenough, and plenty of water, 10 keep in nperationa Factory for every mile.
 Our friend Alexander Graham, Esq. has Mil, seat four miles from Centreville on this creek, mhch is one of tle best locations every way for 2 Factory. which c.uId be desmed. He has Saw Mill with two savs and Grist Mill in operation there now. Indeed, from what we have seen O Bibb, we are prepared to say that il is from ioca ion aud popu tio,, as well calculated for success iul mining aud manufacturing country as any VI have ever seen.-lliyer State Review.

Curran being stationed inn. gays that at very ear y hour yesterday morning party of the be'lgerents
 secnnds, Sc. stopped al the tavern. He was lying at the time upon settee, and the pounding al the door from without aroused him He rose and opened the door, and the party mol recognising him as one of the police, and taking him 10 be the landlord, cal- ed for something to drink. He acted as old Boni. face, handed them the liquor, and each one took a "hearty pull" They talked pretty loudly about the dueI as if they did mol care about the landlord hear ing it, strutcd up and down the bar room, mentioned something about wounded honor, &c. &c. and a'ter a w'iie they started off to be on the battle ground at o'clock Shortly after the party had left the place, Curran informed the rest of the police
 e precise location of the ground and of they s'ar- ted to prevent, if possible, the sheding of so much valuable blood Luck ly they arrived in time. They were seen approaching the ground. and Col.
