Using alternate port and the old syntax for that:
From remote server to target backup localhost:
rsync -av --delete -e 'ssh -p 59333 -i /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa' user@10.8.9.3:/home/user/Server/ /home/user/Server/
From localhost to target remote backup server:
rsync -av --delete -e 'ssh -p 59333 -i /home/user/.ssh/id_rsa' /home/user/Server/ user@10.8.9.3:/home/user/Server/

Using the more modern syntax and no alternate port, we have:
From remote server to target backup localhost:
sudo rsync -avi --delete root@server.com:/home/location/of/mysqldump.sql /home/user/backup/of/mysqldump.sql
From localhost to target remote backup server:
sudo rsync -avi --delete /home/user/backup/of/mysqldump.sql root@server.com:/home/location/of/mysqldump.sql
