James Hoskins (1823 – 1 April 1900) was a politician in colonial New South Wales.

Hoskins was born in London and emigrated to Australia in 1853. After a varied experience on the diggings, he was elected in 1859 to the New South Wales Legislative Assembly for Goldfields North, holding the seat until November 1869. In December 1869 he was returned for Patrick's Plains, and in February 1872 for Tumut. Hoskins was Secretary for Public Works in the Parkes Government from March to August 1877, and Secretary for Lands in the Parkes-Robertson Ministry from December 1878 to December 1881. He was nominated to the New South Wales Legislative Council on 27 February 1889, a position he held until his death in Strathfield, Sydney, New South Wales.
