Using your settings
XTerm*faceName: Cascadia Mono
XTerm*faceSize: 12
in my ~/.Xdefaults, I can get launch "emacs -nw" in an xterm with size
12 font.
I notice that you also have "emacs.font: DejaVu Sans Mono-12" in your
~/.Xdefaults. I wonder if this is interfering when you run emacs in a
terminal? Have your tried commenting out "emacs.font: DejaVu Sans
Mono-12"? Also you seem to be using emacs -nox, have you tried emacs -nw
instead? It may be the latter will work without commenting out the
reference to the emacs font. Try both.
