public static void main(String[] args) {
    DBConnect connect = new DBConnect();
    connect.getData();
    }

and DBConnect:

package sqlconnect;
//https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/connector/j/
 import java.sql.*;

public class DBConnect {
private Connection  con; 
private Statement  st;
private  ResultSet  rs; 
String Query = "SELECT * FROM uczniowie;" ; 
public void DBConnect()

    try{
        Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver") ; 
        con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://serwer:port/BaseName","login","passwd"); 
    }catch(Exception ex){
        System.err.println(ex);
    }
}

public void getData()  
{
    try
    {
        st = con.createStatement();
        rs = st.executeQuery(Query);
        System.out.println("Rows from Table:");
        while(rs.next())
        {               
            String Uczen = rs.getString("Uczen"); 
            String CzyZda = rs.getString("CzyZda");
            String Ocena = rs.getString("Ocena");
            System.out.println("Uczen: " + Uczen +"  "+ "CzyZda: "+ CzyZda+"Ocena: "+Ocena);   
        }
    }

public void DBConnect()

This isn't a constructor: it's a regular method. This is never invoked because you don't invoke it explicitly.

Remove the void.

Additionally, don't catch the Exception. Just add throws Exception (or, hopefully, a more specific exception) to the method signature. Otherwise you can end up with an invalid, unusable instance of the class.

public DBConnect() throws Exception 
{
    Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver") ; 
    con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://serwer:port/BaseName","login","passwd"); 
}
