Good For Evil is an 1876 Australian play by F. R. C. Hopkins. The play was "suggested" from a novel by Ouida.

The play made its debut in Dunedin in 1876.

The play was published as Clay and Porcelain: A Drama of the Present Day (Melbourne, 1875); it was produced by Alfred Dampier in London in 1881.

Hopkins dedicated the play to Dampier, saying "Of one thing I am positive The character of John Gladstone Smith in your hands will be safe to exhibit the many intended traits of a Mephistophelian Iago, which, no matter how much society may pretend to ignore, exists in various forms throughout the world."
