I don't how you can make that choice permanent, but I'm pretty sure you can. (See the emacs manual after hitting Ctrl-h i) You can also start emacs with emacs -fn fontname, and xfontsel helps you find a suitable font. This is very oldschool, but still works. As for me, I put this line: Emacs.font: -adobe-courier-medium-r-normal--14-100-100-100-m-*-*-1 in my ~/.Xdefaults file. (Beware, that it may have to be called ~/.Xdefaults-yourhost.yourdomain or some such.)
