- 3 On 15 February 1887, Richard Lucas, one of the two members for Kingborough, was appointed Attorney-General in James Agnew's Ministry. He was therefore required to resign and contest a ministerial by-election in his seat. On 15 March 1887, an Opposition candidate, Henry Gill, defeated Lucas at the by-election. The Agnew ministry subsequently fell and Philip Fysh was invited to form a government, which took office on 29 March 1887.

- 6 On 29 October 1888, the member for West Devon and Minister for Lands and Works, Edward Braddon, resigned to take up the role of Agent-General for Tasmania in London. At the resulting by-election on 12 November 1888, John McCall was successful. Alfred Pillinger replaced Braddon in the Ministry and was returned unopposed at a ministerial by-election on 6 November 1888.
- 7 On 21 January 1889, the member for Sorell, James Gray, died. At the resulting by-election on 11 February 1889, Charles Featherstone was successful.
- 8 On 1 April 1889, the member for Campbell Town, William Brown, resigned. At the resulting by-election on 30 April 1889, William Bennett was successful.
