I'm not convinced that Washington needs to be evacuated at all. Washington, as has been pointed out in a lengthy and well-researched essay on this very site, was nigh impregnable to the Army of Northern Virginia. Why would the fact that there are troublemakers in Baltimore (which can surely be put down) require a withdrawal from an impregnable fortress?
It wasn't an impregnable fortress until 1862.
