This is the trivial modification to the example on the help page that I was thinking of.

#the example code
  mp <- barplot(VADeaths) # default
  tot <- colMeans(VADeaths)
  text(mp, tot + 3, format(tot), xpd = TRUE, col = "blue")
#the modification
  tot <- colSums(VADeaths)
  text(mp, tot + 3, format(tot), xpd = TRUE, col = "red")

You can learn quite a bit by running the examples on graphics pages.

Depending on what you really mean, possibly:

?barplot
?text  # there _is_ a worked example on the barplot help page.
# true, it does put the labels above the bars, but the modification
would be trivial.
# or
?addtable2plot {in package plotrix}


and the axis label is too big, anyone know how to change their font ,
thanks


?barplot   # again ...  barplots help page seems quite clear

    cex.names = 0.5    # or a number less than one of your choice
