Execution of a Pole,--Kuniarski, a Pole, who participated in the Polish insurrection of 1830, was recently shot at Wilna, on which occasion 4,000 men were put under arms on the place of execution. He had retired to France after the fall of Warsaw, and having secretly returned to Poland without applying for permission, he was seized and tried as being an emissary of the revolutionary propaganda. He died with great fortitude, smiled & joked on beholding the grave which had been prepared for the reception of his corpse, and refused to say anything that would compromise any of his countrymen. His request that he might not be blindfolded preparatory to being shot was rejected.
