Count Leon.-This individual Belgian Count, arrived in this village on Monday last with his Countess, and forty-fve attendants, on his way to Rapps settlement, twelve miles below Pittsburgh. He left Belgium, we believe, through dissatisfaction at the accession of foreign Prince to the throne. His intention is, we learn, to purchase tract of one hundred housand acres of land in a body, and people it with about two thousand of his countrymen, who will embark for America, to follow his fortunes, as they notified that he has provided them home. His property is said to be five millions of dollars, and it is his intention, if not to forget home," at least to adopt our country a new one.
