Clojure's can be used from in Java by importing clojure.lang classes and 
having the Clojure jar in the classpath. No generics, but they implement 
the unmodifiable-foo portions of the Map, Set, List, etc. interfaces 
from java.util and have their own return-a-modified-version methods. 
There's a persistent immutable stack class included.

I'm not sure if clojure.lang has a persistent immutable queue, or if it 
does if it's a deque, but someone posted code for a queue on their 
mailing list a year or so ago. I'm not sure who or exactly when, but a 
search for "persistent queue" will probably turn it up. I think it was a 
full deque with pushes, peeks, and pops at both ends stated to be O(1). 
It used deftype/defprotocol which, if I understand them correctly, 
generates named Java classes and interfaces that can be imported into 
and used from Java if the Clojure code is AOT-compiled to generate 
.class files. I don't know what, if any, license the author specified 
though.

I also recall seeing a priority queue implementation posted there at 
some point.

Of course, you might want to take the larger step of actually using 
Clojure if persistence and immutability are things you crave. ;)
