The 1867 Picton by-election was a by-election held on 25 July 1867 in the Picton electorate during the 4th New Zealand Parliament.

The by-election was caused by the resignation of the incumbent MP Arthur Beauchamp on 12 July 1867. [1] He had been elected on 14 March 1866 (see 1866 New Zealand general election), but did not have the private income then required to be a parliamentarian. [2]

The by-election was won by William Adams. As no other candidates were nominated, he was declared duly elected. [3]
