Oh Dangerous. What does the other post look like? Has it split also? If bending the same way? Given that the other post is solid your problem is strength. Anchor the good post with an anchor in the ground outside the barn or even a tractor/truck--you need to hold it steady. Do not want it to pull into the broken post. Then I would put one of those chain pullers at the cross beam that has pulled away--maybe a cable and turnbuckle. Big ones the size the power company uses. Now up at the top of the broken post hook up a cable, maybe a pulley system and pull it straight. You will need POWER--maybe a tractor. Be careful you don't want to break the good post. Watch how the forces are going to be applied. After you get it straight cable it up with turnbuckles, straight across and diagonal to the cross beam. Then I would put a strap around the broken post and drill through the cross beam.
