The '''1858 New South Wales colonial election''' was held between 13 January and 12 February 1858. This election was for all of the 54 seats in the [[New South Wales Legislative Assembly]] and it was conducted in 18 single-member constituencies, 13 2-member constituencies, two 3-member constituencies and one 4-member constituency, all with a [[first past the post]] system. Suffrage was limited to adult white males. The previous parliament of [[New South Wales]] was dissolved on 19 December 1857 by the [[Governor of New South Wales|Governor]], [[William Denison|Sir William Denison]], on the advice of the [[Premier of New South Wales|Premier]], [[Charles Cowper]].

There was no recognisable party structure at this election; instead the government was determined by a loose, shifting factional system.
