as others indicated, check ?axis... the parameter 'pos=3' will display  
the axis on top

in addition to what others have suggested, you may use:

par(new=T) (check ?par)

this will allow you to superimpose a plot on another. You can then do  
a first plot with your first set of points, then call par(new=T), and  
plot your second set of points whilst setting the axis type to "none",  
so the axes are not ploted. Then you can use 'axis' to display a new  
axis in teh position you want for the new range of points... repeat if  
needed for other sets.

I hope this sets you in the right direction.
