My mistake, by xlabel and ylabel you are refering to the row and column names of your matrix, right? To label a matrix you can simply use colnames() and rownames().
Still its not clear to me what you are trying to do with your code. Perhaps if you give us a sample of your data and explain clearly what you are trying to achieve, we can help you to simplify your code.
