You will want an ANSI font for a terminal. I used to use RXVT, and my favorite was the VGA font from the site below - he has a few sizes: http://home.earthlink.net/~us5zahns/enl/ansifont.html I followed the hint, years ago, from the BitchX docs for selecting this font, since it has all the right characters to render properly.
