    you can be used this code to display a single post & category in your template.

    display a single post:

    <?php
         $abc = query_posts(array('posts_per_page' => 1,'paged' => get_query_var('paged')) );

?>

    and display a single category (include the category id in this code):

    <?php wp_list_categories('include=3&title_li='); ?>

    you can follow this link.

    i just want the feed of 1 category to go on home page, all other categories excperted

    You have to add this code after this <div id=”content”> in your code.:

    <?php
    $a = query_posts(array(
                                 'cat' => 3,  //edit here the category id
                                 'posts_per_page' => 1,
                                 'paged' => get_query_var('paged'))
                         );
?>
