Why GF(256) matrix only have zero and one number?    
   like this
sage: matrix(GF(2**8), [1, 2, 3, 4])
[1 0 1 0]
I just want do some matrix calculate mod 256, can any help me, please?
This is not a matrix issue. The field K=GF(256) has characteristic 2, which result do you expect for K(3) ?
If you want to work mod 256, you should work with Integers(256), not GF(256). (The first of these is the ring Z/256, the second is the field with 256 elements.)
sage: matrix(Integers(256), [1,2,3,4])
[1 2 3 4]
sage: matrix(Integers(256), [254, 255, 256, 257])
[254 255   0   1]
(edited to add the second example)
IntegerModRing(256) is a synonym for Integers(256), by the way.
