The Jiirtieial Power* ol* tlie Freed? men's Burent! Dceliirert Villi. The Louisville Courier, of the 21th ult., reports the following case: The eas? of Smith rs. Recd was disposed of in the United States Circuit Court yes? terday, and thc action of the "Bureau? crats" in connection therewith may bo re? garded as a concession, on their part, of the illegality of their would-be courts. The case was one involving tho legality of the judicial powers claimed by the Bureau agents under thc Freedmen's Bureau Act. Captain Reed, as agent of the Bureau at Cyntniana, rendered a judgment for $75 against Jonathan Smith, and issued an execution to enforce the judgment. His "officers" found Smith hauling wood with two horses-which were all hu had- and took them from him by virtue of and in satisfaction of Captain Reed's "execution." Smith brought suit against Reed and ^ others in the Harrison County Circuit Court, and recovered possession of the horses by a writ of replevin, after they had been gone about two days. Captain Reed, by petition, removed the case into tho United States Circuit Court, to try the. le? gality of his judgment and thc validity of bis process as superintendent. Yesterday, the distinguished attorney, Hon. M. C. Johnson, of Lexington, ap ?eared, to prosecute Smith's snit in the nited States Court, but Captain Reed had received so little encouragement from tho loyal fraternity that ho attempted no de? fence whatever. Judgment was rendered against him for tho horses, and damages and costs. This default may be considered as a con? fession by the Freedmen's Bureau that tho attempt of tho Bureau Act to confer judi? cial power upon its agent was-nugatory, and that tho assumption and exercise, by those military judges, of the power to de" cido controversies concerning negroes, etc., was a pure usurpation. The Freedmen's Bureau in other States has exercised like jurisdiction with that in Kentucky, and judgments were rendered and collected. If such proceedings wi ro violative of law in Kentucky, they must be equally so elsewhere. Startling Exposures. Tho 'Washington correspondent of tho New York Herald writes: When President Johnson was on his late trip in the West, a United States Senator and two Major-Generals of the anny, who belonged to his party, were approached at Indianapolis, by a prominent conservativo Republican, who liad been colonel of an Indiana regiment''daring tho late war, and who is now a captain in the regular ser? vice, and who made tho following startling statement: He had been making speeches for tho Republicans in Indiana, in August last, and by request of Governor Fletcher, of Missouri, visited that State, and made one or t wo conservative speeches. Ho was told by Governor Fletcher that his speeches were too tame: that tho most radical of declarations wore wante d in Missouri; that the people must be told that the Republi? cans had decided that the rebels should not vote, and that thc State was to ho car? ried by force of arms if necessary. Go? vernor Fietchcr also told him that ho had 30,000 muskets in the State in loyal hands, and that they should be used, if necessary, to carry tho State. Thc Indianian told Governor Fletcher timi ?ic was a Republi? can in principle, Iptt did not approve of such measures, and would not ' advocate them. Governor Fletcher thought him merely weak-kneed, and answercdnim that he would como into the harness after awhile. A few nights subsequently, he was pre? sent, on invitation, at a secret meeting of radical leaders, at tho Linden Hotel. About fifty prominent radicals were pre? sent, including Governor Fletcher, of Mis? souri: Governor Oglesby, of Illinois: and Senator Yates and John A. Logan, of Illi? nois. The whole plan of the impeachment of the President was discussed, even to thc arrangement of filling Washington with an armed force of "Roys in blue," to protect Congress, and also to decide who shall succeed Johnson in case vice-President Foster, as his successor, should not provo equally positive and pliable to the wills of the Jacobins. Butler, Governor Morton, of Indiana, ami others, were discussed, butler was looked upon as lacking in con rage, and Morton was feared as being too ambitions for the purposes of tho conspira? tors. General Grant was mentioned as too conservative, and Sherman was scout? ed as a copperhead. Finally, Senator Yates was decided upon as possessing more stamina and less scruples than am? odier available man. If President Johnson 1 Offered serious resistance, and Foster did not act vigorously, Yates was to be put in control of affairs". When hi; was about leaving St. Louis, tho informant in tin- case was requested by Governor Fletcher to ask Governor Morton, of Indiana, wlrat number of arms he could sparc to Missouri. Governor Morton replied, when the message was de? livered, that ho could not say that he had any to spare: that there were about 100,000 stand, with plenty of ammunition, in thc arsenal: he would see what could be spared, and confer with Governor Fletcher. Out of this correspondence grew the con? ference of the Governors at Philadelphia, which, it is now well known, was for the purpose, among others, of distributing arms throughout the country. Outside of tho statement ol'this officer, there is indu? bitable evidence in the hands of President Johnson of the secret distribution of large quantities of arms throughout tin; North? west, on various pretexts, all of which, however, are legal and plausihle enough. While the startling character of this story causes it to he incredulously re? ceived by many, the character of the officer making thc statement, the known despe? rate characters of tho loaders implicated in tho scheme, and much corroborative evi? dence received, cause it to be generally be? lieved among tho President's adherents.

Tho Alabama Legislature will con? ven o at Montgomeryjon Monday, the lltb of November. It will elect a United States Senator, to succeed Gen.
