A/c clutch not working
Have the freon charged checked for proper pressures, the clutch will not engage if it is low. Check your relay and fuses. If that all checks out, it could be pressure switches, bad a/c clutch and several other componets that will need to be tested. I hope this helps.

black smoke - oil in the cylinders
White smoke - water in the wrong area - probably a head gasket.
The head gasket is what I am hoping for because it is cheaper to do. And most instructions manuals from an autoparts store has step by step instructions.
If it is oil then you are looking at rebuilding or replacing your engine.
Take a look at both the oil and antifreeze to check for cross contamination which would verify the blown head gasket.
